Hi,
The outcome of my query should be the following :
gender | score | outcome |
1 | 48 | 1 |
1 | 48 | 1 |
1 | 45 | 2 |
1 | 56 | 3 |
2 | 50 | 1 |
2 | 50 | 1 |
2 | 41 | 2 |
2 | 51 | 3 |
This is my script :
data students;
input gender score ;
cards;
1 48
1 48
1 45
1 56
2 50
2 50
2 41
2 51
;
run;
I've tried this :
proc sort data = students;
by gender score;
run;
data students2;
set students;
by gender score;
if (first.gender and first.score) then outcome + 1;
run;
But this is not the solution.
Can anybody help out ?
Thanks
B

Thanks very much Chris !
Store your FIRST variables to help build your conditions.
I've included the correct answer, but commented it out.
data students;
input gender score ;
cards;
1 48
1 48
1 45
1 56
2 50
2 50
2 41
2 51
;
run;
I've tried this :
proc sort data = students;
by gender score;
run;
data students2;
set students;
by gender score;
first_gender = first.gender;
first_score = first.score;
/*
if first.gender then outcome=1;
else if first.score then outcome+1;
*/
run;
