HI All,

 

I have a data set which I need to calculate any persons that made multiple contact on that day as well as made contact in the previous seven days.

 

For example I have a list of all contacts made on 5 November 2018 and I need a count of those 'Persons' that also made contact between the 29 October 2018 and 4 November 2018.  

 

  1. I need the total count of contacts (in example is 10)
  2. Distinct number of contacts (in the example is 9)
  3. the count of duplicate person who made contact on the previous seven days  
  4. Then I can calculate the percentage of repeat contacts

so from the example I should end up with the following result.

 Percentage of multiple contacts

 5/11/20182/11/20181/11/201831/10/201830/10/201829/10/2018total Repeat %
Monday, 5 November 201811%22%33%22%78%22%89%

 

I have attached the spreadsheet with the test data and calculations - I'm not sure how to get the same results out of SAS EG.

 

Any help appreciated

 

Cheers

 

Dean

Have added the following code that gets me the same day repeat Persons.

 

data test2;
	set test;
	Where date = '05Nov2018'd;
run;

proc sql;
	Create table testCallPersons as
		Select Date, Person, count(person) as personcount
			From (select distinct date, Person from Test2)
				Group by Date, Person;
quit;

proc Summary data=testCallPersons;
	By Date;
	VAr personcount;
	Output out=testPCount (Drop=_freq_ _Type_) sum=;
run;

proc sql;
	Create table testCallCount as
		Select Date, Person, count(person) as Callcount
			From (select date, Person from Test2)
				Group by Date, Person;
quit;

Data TestDupPerscount;
	Set testCallCount;

	If Callcount >1 Then
		DupCount = 2;
	Else DupCount = 1;
run;

proc Summary data=TestDupPerscount;
	By Date;
	VAr Callcount	DupCount;
	Output out=testCCount (Drop=_freq_ _Type_) sum=;
run;

Data testMerge;
	Merge testPCount  testCCount;
	By Date;
run;

Data testPerc;
	Drop personcount Callcount DupCount;
	Set testmerge;
	Day1Perc = (DupCount - personcount) / personcount;
	format Day1perc percent7.2;
run;

 

Anyway of doing this smarter? Just now need to work out how to match against the previous days to get the duplicates.

Here's one approach that's simpler. It matches the 11.1% you reported via your method.

 

proc freq data=test noprint;;
where date='05Nov2018'd;
table person / out=t1;
run;

proc format;
value dup_fmt
1 = 'Unique'
2-high = 'Duplicated';
run;

proc freq data=t1 (rename=count=Freq) noprint;;
table freq / out=t2;
format freq dup_fmt.;
run;
