Export to LaTeX

• eststo, esttab, estadd and estout are the best solution to print and export to latex the estimation results.
  • eststo is a prefix command which stores estimation results.
  • estout prints the results. It includes many options and is difficult to use.
  • esttab is a wrapper for estout which includes less options and is easier to use.
  • estadd allows to store more statistics.
