QUESTION 2 - ANSWER

How many people live in a house connected to electricity but still use wood as their main energy source for heating?

Start by looking for variables related to electricity and heating source.

lookfor electricity

184. connecte  byte   %9.0g                  1 :connected to electricity sup

lookfor heat

189. heatw_m   byte   %9.0g       heatw_m    2c:heating-water:main source
190. heatw_s   byte   %9.0g       heatw_s    2c:heating-water:second source
191. heath_m   byte   %9.0g       heath_m    2d:heating-home:main source
192. heath_s   byte   %9.0g       heath_s    2d:heating-home:second source

You should see that connecte and heath_m are the variables of interest for this question. Then you can use the crosstab command. Once again omitting negative variables. Use the command "tab heath_m connecte" to generate the following chart:

tab heath_m connecte if heath_m>=0 & connecte>=0

2d:heating |    1 :connected to
-home:main |    electricity sup
    source |         1          2 |     Total
-----------+----------------------+----------
   01-wood |       223       1700 |      1923
  02-paraf |       126        583 |       709
  03-charc |       141        302 |       443
  04-elect |      1504          0 |      1504
  05-elect |        23          0 |        23
  07-gas f |        19         34 |        53
   11-dung |         0         48 |        48
  12-other |         0         10 |        10
-----------+----------------------+----------
     Total |      2036       2677 |      4713

By looking at the survey, you'll see that 1 means the household is connected to electricity and 4 means that the house uses wood as its primary source of heating energy. Therefore, we can tell that 223 people live in households where there is electricity but wood is still used for heating.
