The rectangles are arranged such that they overlap and delimit areas. In each area the counts of records is shown for the relevant combination of ^varlist^ With two variables A and B, the counts of records (A== 1 & B== 1) is placed in the overlapping area of A and B. In area A (non A+B) the count (A== 1 & B!= 1) is placed and in area B (non A+B) the count (A!=1 & B==1). Note: ^-^ Information retrievable in S_* variables after execution ^-^ Size of text can be set with ^Set textsize^ (<120 recommended) ^-^ Some options changed from version 1 to 2. ^-^ For Stata version 5 get gr34_2 from STB49 ^-^ Some options changed from version 1 to 2 (moved from label to show). --------- ^venndiag^ could be used, for example, to ^-^ show how many persons have different symptoms indicated in the variables in varlist. E.g astma, hayfever and eczema ^-^ show in a household survey the numbers of having cats, dogs and birds ^-^ count specific diagnoses placed in one or several variables ^-^ combine variables and achieve frequency counts in logfile and in a new variable ^-^ create combined variable of 2-4 variables (with or without missing) Options -------- ^square^ Show rectangles as in stb version of venndiag ^ellipse^ Show ellipses with two-four variables (default: 4 variables) ^circle^ Show circles with two and three variables (default) ^nograph^ Do not show graph, regardless of contents of ^show^ ^show()^ Show in diagram: (rectangle: ^cpdtf^) (ellip+circ: ^cpdtfl^) ^l^ variable lables (circle and ellipses only) ^p^ percent of area (area/total) ^c^ Count in each area ^t^ Percent of each variable (variable/total) (! SUM > 100 %) ^v^ Add variable name ^d^ Add date of creation ^f^ Add footnote explaining percentages and filename ^n^ Display Nill (= 0) counts and percentages ^x^ Leave out counts and percentages in the nonABCD area ^nolabel^ Disregards all labelling, regardless of contents of ^label^ ^label()^ Show to the right of diagram: (rectangle: ^ad^) (ellip+circ: ^t^) ^c^ variable names and value ^c^ounted in each variable ^d^ overall description ^m^ indicates counts of missing in each variable ^t^ titles are shown ^i^ information of number of records ^x^ show e^x^tra titles in r1title....r6title (do not use with ^mic^) ^t1title(^string^)^ ^t2title(^string^)^ ^t3title(^string^)^ titles shown on graph Default t1(Venn Diagram) t2() t3(N = #observations) ^r1title()^ ^r2title()^ ^r3title()^ ^r4itle()^ ^r5title()^ ^r6title()^ Titles to show if ^x^ is included in ^label()^ ^xoff()^ Defines top "margin": From top to r1title (default 6000) ^yoff()^ Defines left "margin": From left to r1title (default 22000) ^saving(^file^)^ Save graph to file named as string (replacing file) On Win-95/MAC also saved as wmf file (see @gphprint@) ^gen()^ Add variable named in () to dataset. Must be non existing. The user must save the dataset after running venndiag to keep the generated variable. A note describing if/in or missing values is created for the generated variable. Can be redisplayed with @note@ ^c1(^integer^)^ ^c2(^integer^)^ ^c3(^integer^)^ ^c4(^integer^)^ Specifies which value to regard as outcome in v1...v4 (default 1) ^ca(^int^)^ Count on specified value for all variables. E.g. ^ca(2)^ to use 2 as outcome. ^noframe^ Exclude frame with square design ^missing^ Include all records regardless of missing variables in ^varlist^ ^pen()^ which pens to use in the graph. E.g. pen(257): Pen 2 for texts pen 5 for rectangles, pen 7 for frame. Default pen(123) ^print^ print graph immediately (Win-95 & MAC only) ^thick()^ thickness of pens on ^printing^ (Win-95 & Mac), default ^thick(995)^. Note link to ^pen()^. Eg. ^thick(112)^ when ^pen(234)^. Thickness on screen can vary depending on the local setup. Some experimentation might be necessary.
