rowsort creates new variables sort_1, ... , sort_p corresponding to var_1, ... , var_p in varlist such that sort_1, ... , sort_p contain the sorted (ordered) values in each observation of varlist. varlist should contain all numeric variables with integer values. Missing values are allowed. rowsort loops over observations and may be relatively slow. It may be faster to reshape, sort within blocks, and reshape again.
