I am new to SAS
I have multiple datasets with the following variables
Dataset 1 Subid;visit; flag; date; time
Dataset 2 Subid;visit; flag; date; time
Dataset 3 Subid;visit; date; time
Dataset 4 Subid;visit; date; time
I need to,
When flag is present in the dataset compare date and time for the flag across datasets across visits
When flag is not present in dataset compare date across mentioned datasets and across visits
You have two datasets with the flag and two datasets without the flag. If you simply want a pure comparison of two datasets, proc compare will produce a report for you that compares variables with each other.
Example data:
data dataset1;
input subid visit flag date:date9. time:time.;
format date date9. time time.;
datalines;
1 1 1 01JAN2022 00:00
2 2 0 01JAN2022 01:00
;
run;
data dataset2;
input subid visit flag date:date9. time:time.;
format date date9. time time.;
datalines;
1 1 1 01JAN2022 00:00
2 2 1 03JAN2022 02:00
;
run;
Code:
proc sort data=dataset1;
by subid visit;
run;
proc sort data=dataset2;
by subid visit;
run;
proc compare base=dataset1 compare=dataset2;
id subid visit;
var date time;
run;
You can produce a dataset of only the differences as well.
proc compare base = dataset1
compare = dataset2
out = compare
outnoequal
noprint
;
id subid visit;
var date time;
run;

Date set having id and date .I want a date set with two duplicate id but condition is that one should be before 8th June and other should be after 8th June.
To take the first date and the first date after 2021-06-08 you can sort by ID and DATE and use LAG() to detect when you cross the date boundary.
data have ;
input id date :date. ;
format date date9.;
cards;
1 01jun2021
1 07jun2021
1 08jun2021
1 09jun2021
;
data want;
set have ;
by id date;
if first.id or ( (date<='08JUN2021'd) ne lag(date<='08JUN2021'd));
run;
results
Obs id date
1 1 01JUN2021
2 1 09JUN2021
I have a sas datebase with something like this:
id birthday Date1 Date2
1 12/4/01 12/4/13 12/3/14
2 12/3/01 12/6/13 12/2/14
3 12/9/01 12/4/03 12/9/14
4 12/8/13 12/3/14 12/10/16
And I want the data in this form:
id Date Datetype
1 12/4/01 birthday
1 12/4/13 1
1 12/3/14 2
2 12/3/01 birthday
2 12/6/13 1
2 12/2/14 2
3 12/9/01 birthday
3 12/4/03 1
3 12/9/14 2
4 12/8/13 birthday
4 12/3/14 1
4 12/10/16 2
Thanks by ur help, i'm on my second week using sas <3
Edit: thanks by remain me that i was not finding a sorting method.
Good day. The following should be what you are after. I did not come up with an easy way to rename the columns as they are not in beginning data.
/*Data generation for ease of testing*/
data begin;
input id birthday $ Date1 $ Date2 $;
cards;
1 12/4/01 12/4/13 12/3/14
2 12/3/01 12/6/13 12/2/14
3 12/9/01 12/4/03 12/9/14
4 12/8/13 12/3/14 12/10/16
; run;
/*The trick here is to use date: The colon means everything beginning with date, comparae with sql 'date%'*/
proc transpose data= begin out=trans;
by id;
var birthday date: ;
run;
/*Cleanup. Renaming the columns as you wanted.*/
data trans;
set trans;
rename _NAME_= Datetype COL1= Date;
run;

Two steps
Pivot the data using Proc TRANSPOSE.
Change the names of the output columns and their labels with PROC DATASETS
Sample code
proc transpose
data=have
out=want
( keep=id _label_ col1)
;
by id;
var birthday date1 date2;
label birthday='birthday' date1='1' date2='2' ; * Trick to force values seen in pivot;
run;
proc datasets noprint lib=work;
modify want;
rename
_label_ = Datetype
col1 = Date
;
label
Datetype = 'Datetype'
;
run;
The column order in the TRANSPOSE output table is:
id variables
copy variables
_name_ and _label_
data based column names
The sample 'want' shows the data named columns before the _label_ / _name_ columns. The only way to change the underlying column order is to rewrite the data set. You can change how that order is perceived when viewed is by using an additional data view, or an output Proc that allows you to specify the specific order desired.
I am trying to extract all the Time occurrences for only the recent visit. Can someone help me with the code please.
Here is my data:
Obs Name Date Time
1 Bob 2017090 1305
2 Bob 2017090 1015
3 Bob 2017081 0810
4 Bob 2017072 0602
5 Tom 2017090 1300
6 Tom 2017090 1010
7 Tom 2017090 0805
8 Tom 2017072 0607
9 Joe 2017085 1309
10 Joe 2017081 0815
I need the output as:
Obs Name Date Time
1 Bob 2017090 1305,1015
2 Tom 2017090 1300,1010,0805
3 Joe 2017085 1309
Right now my code is designed to give me only one recent entry:
DATA OUT2;
SET INP1;
BY DATE;
IF FIRST.DATE THEN OUTPUT OUT2;
RETURN;
I would first sort the data by name and date. Then I would transpose and process the results.
proc sort data=have;
by name date;
run;
proc transpose data=have out=temp1;
by name date;
var value;
run;
data want;
set temp1;
by name date;
if last.name;
format value $2000.;
value = catx(',',of col:);
drop col: _name_;
run;
You may want to further process the new VALUE to remove excess commas (,) and missing value .'s.
Very similar to the question yesterday from another user, you can use quite a few solutions here.
SQL again is the easiest; this is not valid ANSI SQL and pretty much only SAS supports this, but it does work in SAS:
proc sql;
select name, date, time
from have
group by name
having date=max(date);
quit;
Even though date and time are not on the group by it's legal in SAS to put them on the select, and then SAS automatically merges (inner joins) the result of select name, max(date) from have group by name having date=max(date) to the original have dataset, returning multiple rows as needed. Then you'd want to collapse the rows, which I leave as an exercise for the reader.
You could also simply generate a table of maximum dates using any method you choose and then merge yourself. This is probably the easiest in practice to use, in particular including troubleshooting.
The DoW loop also appeals here. This is basically the precise SAS data step implementation of the SQL above. First iterate over that name, figure out the max, then iterate again and output the ones with that max.
proc sort data=have;
by name date;
run;
data want;
do _n_ = 1 by 1 until (last.name);
set have;
by name;
max_Date = max(max_date,date);
end;
do _n_ = 1 by 1 until (last.name);
set have;
by name;
if date=max_date then output;
end;
run;
Of course here you more easily collapse the rows, too:
data want;
length timelist $1024;
do _n_ = 1 by 1 until (last.name);
set have;
by name;
max_Date = max(max_date,date);
end;
do _n_ = 1 by 1 until (last.name);
set have;
by name;
if date=max_date then timelist=catx(',',timelist,time);
if last.name then output;
end;
run;
If the data is sorted then just retain the first date so you know which records to combine and output.
proc sort data=have ;
by name descending date time;
run;
data want ;
set have ;
by name descending date ;
length timex $200 ;
retain start timex;
if first.name then do;
start=date;
timex=' ';
end;
if date=start then do;
timex=catx(',',timex,time);
if last.date then do;
output;
call missing(start,timex);
end;
end;
drop start time ;
rename timex=time ;
run;
I have the following dataset:
DATA survey;
informat order_date date9. ;
INPUT id order_date ;
DATALINES;
1 11SEPT20016
2 12AUG2016
3 14JAN2016
;
RUN;
PROC PRINT data = survey;
format order_date date9.;
RUN;
What I would like to do now is classify the records based on their last visit. So what I want to do is:
Set a date (fe, 10SEPT 2016)
Classify all records that have a lastvisit > 30days as 1, Classify all records that have a lastvisit > 60days as 2 etc...
Any thoughts on how I need to program this?
You could build something like this (count the days between the dates, divide them by 30 and ceil them). Alternativly, if you want to use months and not 30 days, you can replace the first intck parameter with 'month' and remove the ceil and /30:
DATA survey;
informat order_date date9. ;
INPUT id order_date ;
DATALINES;
1 11SEP2016
2 12AUG2016
3 14JAN2016
4 09SEP2016
5 10AUG2016
;
RUN;
%let lastvisit=10SEP2016;
data result;
set survey;
days_30=ceil(intck('days', order_date,"&lastvisit"d)/30)-1;
run;
PROC PRINT data = result;
format order_date date9.;
RUN;
Here is my data :
data example;
input id sports_name;
datalines;
1 baseball
1 basketball
1 cricket
1 soccer
2 golf
2 fencing
This is just a sample. The variable sports_name is categorical with 56 types.
I am trying to transpose the data to wide form where each row would have a user_id and the names of sports as the variables with values being 1/0 indicating Presence or absence.
So far, I used proc freq procedure to get the cross tabulated frequency table and put that in a different data set and then transposed that data. Now i have missing values in some cases and count of the sports in rest of the cases.
Is there any better way to do this?
Thanks!!
You need a way to create something from nothing. You could have also used the SPARSE option in PROC FREQ. SAS names cannot have length greater than 32.
data example;
input id sports_name :$16.;
retain y 1;
datalines;
1 baseball
1 basketball
1 cricket
1 soccer
2 golf
2 fencing
;;;;
run;
proc print;
run;
proc summary data=example nway completetypes;
class id sports_name;
output out=freq(drop=_type_);
run;
proc print;
run;
proc transpose data=freq out=wide(drop=_name_);
by id;
var _freq_;
id sports_name;
run;
proc print;
run;
Same theory here, generate a list of all possible combinations using SQL instead of Proc Summary and then transposing the results.
data example;
informat sports_name $20.;
input id sports_name $;
datalines;
1 baseball
1 basketball
1 cricket
1 soccer
2 golf
2 fencing
;
run;
proc sql;
create table complete as
select a.id, a_x.sports_name, case when not missing(e.sports_name) then 1 else 0 end as Present
from (select distinct ID from example) a
cross join (select distinct sports_name from example) a_x
full join example as e
on e.id=a.id
and e.sports_name=a_x.sports_name;
quit;
proc transpose data=complete out=want;
by id;
id sports_name;
var Present;
run;
