max011060
bijou0855344
cooper70800568
princess8569688

and I want the output look like this

 

name week     eos

bijou  week0   0

          week2   855

          week4  344

.

.

.

and so on

here is my code

data dogs3;
infile '/folders/myshortcuts/SASUniversityEdition/module 6/dogs3.txt'
firstobs=3
;
input name $ week0 week2 week4;
proc
print data = dogs3;
proc sort data= dogs3;
by name;


proc
transpose data = dogs3
out = newdog3;
by name;
ID week0 week2 week4;
var week0 week2 week4 ;
proc
print data = newdog3;

here is my log
