I have a dataset with multiple obs.
I only want to show obs when occur some condition and immediately next obs.
I dont want to put two conditions because other obs can satisfy.
Is it possible?
thanks
Sure, using a RETAINed variable. Here is an example:
data want;
retain flag;
set sashelp.class;
condition = age = 14;
if flag then output;
else if condition then output;
flag = condition;
drop flag condition;
run;
