Data sources: Extraction from Enquete Emploi INSEE 1986-1988.

Organization of the data:
 There are seven variables denoted v1-v7 and 1150 observations.

   v7 is the weight attached to each observation because of the
endogeneous sampling scheme

   (v1,v2), (v3-v4), (v5-v6) are the couples (state, duration)
in 1986, 1987, 1988.

   State: {v1,v3,v5} It takes three values
      1=unemployed
      2=wage-work
      3=self-employed

   Duration: {v2,v4,v6} in years.
      The domain of v2 is all positive numbers
      The domain of v4 is the interval 0-1. It is top-coded. A value 1
means that the state is the same in 1986 and 1987 (v1=v3)
      The domain of v6 is the interval 0-2. It is topcoded. A value
between 1 and 2 means that the state is the same in 87 and 88 (v3=v5).
A value 2 means that the state is the same in 86, 87, 88 (v1=v3=v5)
