Hi,

I have a dataset with program ID, total number of participants, and participant count for demographic sub-categories such as age, gender, and ethnicity. Total participants should equal to the total for each sub-categories. Could you please let me know how I can check this using SAS 9.4? Is there a way to identify programs for which total participant number does not match the total of sub-categories?

 

Variables for sub-category Age = Age04 Age511 Age1214 Age1517 Age1820 Age2124 Age2544 Age4564 Age65Plus AgeUnk

Variables for sub-category Gender = Male Female GenderUnk

Variables for sub-category Ethnicity = NotHispanic MexicanChicano PuertoRican Cuban OtherHisp HispUnk
