. use "C:\Documents and Settings\Michael Rosenfeld\My Documents\newer web pages\soc_meth_proj3\cps_mar_2000_new.dta", clear

* This is a short log because the graphs get produced into a different window, and are not part of the log (so brief reminder, save the graphs themselves if you want to keep them).

. graph hbox yrsed if age>=25 & age<=34, over(sex)

* One kind of interesting thing is that even though women have slightly more education than men, this difference does not show up at all on the box plot. There are too few different categories of educational attainment, and the educational distribution of men and women is similar enough that the 25th, 50th, and 75th percentiles are exactly the same, so the box plots are identical.

. graph hbox inctot if occ1990==178| occ1990==95 | occ1990==125, over(occ1990)

* This one looks like a graph you will produce for HW2.

. graph box inctot if metro~=0, over(metro)

* Even though income does vary meaningfully across metro categories, it's hard to see the difference in the box plots, so table it:

. table metro, contents (p10 incwage p25 incwage p50 incwage p75 incwage p90 incwage)
