{title:Description}

{pstd}
Command {helpb msum} Store the results of mean, standard deviation, quantitles in {helpb matrix}.{p_end}


{title:Options} 

{phang} 
{opth by:(varlist:groupvar)} specifies the {it:groupvar} that defines the two
groups that {opt ttest} will use to test the hypothesis that their means are
equal.  Specifying {opt by(groupvar)} implies an unpaired (two sample) t test.
Do not confuse the {opt by()} option with the {cmd:by} prefix; you can specify
both.

{phang} 
{opt detail} produces additional statistics, including skewness, kurtosis, the four smallest and four largest
        values, and various percentiles.
		
{phang} 
{opt missing} requests that missing values be treated like other values in calculations of counts, percentages.
