Line graph connecting the mean values of several variables

[pavan pandey]

Hi Stata Loving People,


I am stuck on a problem.

I want to create a graph showing the mean value of the heart rate at 0,5,10, 15, 30 and 45 minutes among the participants of different groups (total 3 groups).

I was able to create it in excel but I don't know which of the graphics options available in the Stata is most appropriate for this?

Below is the sample from my data.

1 78 67 68 75 74 75
1 67 65 70 76 75 74
1 80 68 69 70 78 74

1 78 78 68 75 75 74

collapse hr*, by(group)
reshape long hr, i(group) j(minutes)
twoway (line hr minutes if group==1)(line hr minutes if group==2)(line hr minutes if group==3)
