Have a look at the guidance when posting questions, its next to the Post button. Provide test data in the form of a datastep in a code window, and show required output. As I am not typing that out, here is a best guess:
proc transpose data=other_data out=t_other prefix=rest; var var; run; data want; merge have t_other; array var{10}; array rest{10}; array res{10}; do i=1 to 10; res{i}=var{i}-rest{i}; end; run;
