CSES Module 1 Data Set Errata

Australia (1996) – District Level Returns Flipped: Datafile
The district level returns for Australian parties A and B are flipped. That is, the Liberal Party returns are reported in variable A4004_A, and the Australian Labour Party returns are reported in variable A4004_B.
The following pseudo-code can be used to correct the problem, after modification to fit the statistical software in use:
rename variable "A4004_A" to "temp". rename variable "A4004_B" to "A4004_A". rename variable "temp" to "A4004_B".
