Hi,

 

I want to create a count variable. I have the following dataset:

 

ID         GPS         Open          Store

1          4321          Y                1

1          3421          Y                2

1          2321          N               1

2          1235          Y               4

2          1242          N               2

3          1235          N               2

 

The new dataset should look like:

 

ID         GPS         Open          Store      Count

1          4321          Y                1             3

1          3421          Y                2             3

1          2321          N               1              3

2          1235          Y               4              2

2          1242          N               2              2

3          1235          N               2              1

 

So the new variable 'count' counts the number of observations with the same ID.

 

Thanks!
