Several recipes have also been updated to reflect new features in Stata added between versions 10 and 14. The discussion of maximum-likelihood function evaluators has been significantly expanded in this edition. The new topics covered in this edition include factor variables and operatores; use of margins, marginsplot, and suest; Mata-based likelihood function evaluators; and associative arrays."--Preface.
