Hi, I found this example in SAS page

data Turbine;
informat Day date7.;
format Day date5.;
label KWatts='Average Power Output';
input Day @;
do i=1 to 10;
input KWatts @;
output;
end;
drop i;
datalines;

;
run;

It works perfect. The output data is like:

05JUL94 3196

05JUL94 3507

05JUL94 4050

...

18JUL94 3296

Now, suppose i already have the data in a table and I want the same result.

My data is:

This is called transposing your data.

In this case from wide to long.

You can use a data step step with an array

or you can use PROC TRANSPOSE
