Step 1: Assign var_name to each variable

Deliverable is var_name.csv

As per F1 the field var_name will be a unique identifier for each variable. Some rules to adhere to:

• var_name is a string containing only letters and numbers and does not have spaces or special characters.
• var_name is a variable level identifier that should not contain strata information. For example SECLABPARTM and SECLABPARTF are invalid because they indicate that the variable SECLABPART is for sex (male) and sex (female) strata; the correct var_name in this case is just SECLABPART. var_name is strictly for the variable and strata is captured in supplementary identifiers detailed in the next step.
