Hello,
I'm trying to calculate some final scores for survey data using base SAS. I need to added summery totals at the end of sections.
My code right now is this
data want (keep=
code Q1 Q2 A5 A8 TotalPoss1 Totalmet1 casescore1
P18 W30 W15 W88 H38 TotalPoss2 Totalmet2 casescore2;
set CCR_Scoredt;
TotalPoss1= n(Q1 Q2 A5 A8);
Totalmet1= sum(Q1 Q2 A5 A8);
casescore1= Totalmet1/ TotalPoss1;
TotalPoss2= n(P18 W30 W15 W88);
Totalmet2= sum(P18 W30 W15 W88);
Casescore2= Totalmet2/ TotalPoss2;
format casescore1 Casescore2 Percent6.
run;
code | Q1 | Q2 | A5 | A8 | A3 | TotalPoss1 | Totalmet1 | casescore1 | P18 | W30 | W15 | W88 | H38 | TotalPoss2 | Totalmet2 | casescore2 |
BD567 | 1 | 1 | . | 0 | 0 | 4 | 2 | 50% | 1 | 1 | . | 1 | 0 | 3 | 2 | 67% |
CN33 | 1 | . | 0 | 0 | 1 | 4 | 2 | 50% | 0 | . | 1 | 0 | 1 | 2 | 2 | 100% |
S365 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 5 | 3 | 60% | 0 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 4 | 3 | 75% |
R555 | . | 0 | 1 | . | 1 | 3 | 2 | 67% | . | 0 | 1 | . | 1 | 2 | 2 | 100% |
I need to add in additional variables which give aggregate totals.
The final product I'm looking for is this:
code | Q1 | Q2 | A5 | A8 | A3 | TotalPoss1 | Totalmet1 | casescore1 | AllPoss1 | AlltotalMet1 | AllScore1 | P18 | W30 | W15 | W88 | H38 | TotalPoss2 | Totalmet2 | casescore2 | AllPoss2 | AlltotalMet2 | AllScore2 |
BD567 | 1 | 1 | . | 0 | 0 | 4 | 2 | 50% | 16 | 9 | 56% | 1 | 1 | . | 1 | 0 | 3 | 2 | 67% | 11 | 9 | 82% |
CN33 | 1 | . | 0 | 0 | 1 | 4 | 2 | 50% | 0 | . | 1 | 0 | 1 | 2 | 2 | 100% | ||||||
S365 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 5 | 3 | 60% | 0 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 4 | 3 | 75% | ||||||
R555 | . | 0 | 1 | . | 1 | 3 | 2 | 67% | . | 0 | 1 | . | 1 | 2 | 2 | 100% |
I think I should use by group processing but I’m having trouble figuring it out. Your feedback is appreciated.
Thanks.
Storing totals/subtotals in tables is not usually best practice.
You may want to explore Proc Report, which is a quite flexible tool for doing different kind of calculations.
So it looks to me like AllPoss1 is the sum for all rows of TotalPos1, and AlltotalMet1 is the sum of all rows of TotalMet1, and AllScore1 is just AlltotalMet1 / AllPoss1.
And the same for the ...2 variables.
For these six variables, do you want them on every row of your data, or only on the first row?

Hi TomKari-
I need the vars only on the first row.
Thanks.
This step will create a 1-record table with your totals:
PROC SQL;
CREATE TABLE want_totals AS
SELECT (SUM(TotalPoss1)) AS AllPoss1,
(SUM(Totalmet1)) AS AlltotalMet1,
(SUM(Totalmet1) / SUM(TotalPoss1)) FORMAT=Percent6. AS AllScore1,
(SUM(TotalPoss2)) AS AllPoss2,
(SUM(Totalmet2)) AS AlltotalMet2,
(SUM(Totalmet2) / SUM(TotalPoss2)) FORMAT=Percent6. AS AllScore2
FROM WANT;
QUIT;
And then this will merge your totals back into your original dataset:
data want_with_totals;
merge want want_totals;
run;
