Interesting idea to sum up ID's.

 

If you know about SQL, you can use Proc SQL to solve this.

 

There are for sure other ways using DATA Step programming or using a Proc such as MEANS.

 

SQL sample:

data have;
  infile cards;
  input id;
cards;
1
2
3
;

proc sql;
  select
    id
    , (select sum(id) from have) as id_1
  from
    have
  ;
quit;

 

For next time: please provide a better subject line for the post, so that we have more information already in the title.

Here is one proc+datastep method:

data have;
  input id;
  datalines;
1
2
3
;

proc summary data=have;
  var id;
  output out=sum (drop=_:) sum=id_1;
run;

data want;
  set have;
  if _n_ eq 1 then set sum;
run;

And here's a single data step solution.  It's still two passes through the data, but it's a single step.

 

data want;
  set have (in=firstpass)
      have (in=secondpass);
  if firstpass then sumid+id;
  if secondpass;
run;
--------------------------
The hash OUTPUT method will overwrite a SAS data set, but not append. That can be costly. Consider voting for Add a HASH object method which would append a hash object to an existing SAS data set

Would enabling PROC SORT to simultaneously output multiple datasets be useful? Then vote for
Allow PROC SORT to output multiple datasets
