CODEBOOK: cma_panel
==============================================================

All values are SIMULATED. No figure describes any real
person, household, city, or country.
Appendix B explains how each dataset was built and what it is
for.

Categorical variables are stored as integer codes; the
mapping is given below. Sentinel missing codes (97, 98,
99) are left in place, NOT converted to NA -- recoding
them is an exercise in several chapters.
