Hello Stata people;
I'm using Stata version 13.1, and I have this data:
As you can see, it shows the annual aggregated population of 27 European countries. My goal is to generate a variable that shows the change (evolution, variation, growth or degrowth) of that population in numbers (thousands of inhabitants), in order to draw a yealy annual graph of that variable, it is kind of like the population growth, but in thousands, not in percentage.
Can I get some help with this?
With many thanks!
