Stata - Ease of use

Stata has a topical index built into the online help system.

Stata has an easy-to-use point-and-click interface providing access to its commands.

Stata also has a simple, consistent command syntax.

Here's how you do an OLS regression using a command:

. regress mvalue gender age income educ1-educ6

Most commands have the same syntax, whether the command fits a model, produces descriptive statistics, or performs a data-management task:

. summarize age income
. tabulate age
. logit outcome gender status exp if age>29
. graph income educ if state=="Texas"
. drop if age <= 29
. by gender: tabulate case exposure
. by agegrp: summarize income yrswk
