The command is similar to Stata's {helpb nlist:numlist} command but additionally expands sequences of (extended) missing value codes, such as {cmd:.a/.c}, treating the distance between successive missing value codes as 1. {pstd} Only integer values or extended missing values are allowed in {it:numlist}; real values and system missing values ({cmd:.}) are not allowed. {title:Options} {phang} {opt real:ok} allows real values in {it:numlist}. {phang} {opt sysmis:sok} allows system missing values in {it:numlist}. {phang} {opt l:ocal(lmacname)} stores the expanded {it:numlist} in local macro {it:lmacname}; nothing is returned in {cmd:r()}. {title:Examples} {phang2} {stata elabel numlist "42 .a/.c":. elabel numlist "42 .a/.c"} {p_end} {phang2} {stata display "`r(numlist)'":. display "`r(numlist)'"} {p_end} {title:Saved results} {pstd} {cmd:elabel numlist} saves the following in {cmd:r()}: {pstd} Macros{p_end} {synoptset 16 tabbed}{...} {synopt:{cmd:r(numlist)}}expanded {it:numlist} {p_end} {title:Author} {pstd} Daniel Klein{break} University of Kassel{break} klein.daniel.81@gmail.com {title:Also see} {psee} Online: {help label}, {help label language}{p_end} {psee} if installed: {help elabel} {p_end}
