Subject:   Complicated graphing question.
Content-Type:   TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII

I want to make a graph of the percentage of people who are retired by a certain age. Furthermore I want to see whether rich persons (0,1) retire earlier. Variables are: RETIRE (0,1), AGE(30-60), RICH (0,1)

| Rich | / NonRich %| / / | / / |// ------------age

Therefore I need to know how to calculate the %retired variable, I suspect it must be with the rank command. Any guesses at a method?

My thinking is to weight by RETIRE and Rank AGE BY RICH.

Thanks for any help sorry for mental summersault question!
