Why do you want add them up there?

It is better to put summary statistics in another data set.( using proc means)

But, OK, the following code is what you want:


proc report data = test out=test_out nowd;

   col A B ;

   rbreak after / summarize;

run;

proc sql;

   create table want as

     select * from have

I'm curious, in what way is 'k' a combination of 'a' and 'b'?
