I need to change a column of names of variables (e.g. HC17954) to be random while ensuring that existing values receive the same new random number
I use a cryptographic hashing algorithm to solve a similar problem to yours. A hash will produce the same output for the same input, but the input is not derivable from the output. A very nice person wrote a wrapper for OpenSSL for Stata, and it’s perfect for my needs.
