Count Without Proc SQL

commendable work!

I would hope to complete the data collection in a single pass using either arrays or hash tables to hold the counters for distinct values. Reason: simply that I think it is possible and would be worth the effort when run-times exceed development time for "big data".

However, I won't commit development time for even a demo without more clarity about serious requirements .

Thanks. Peter.

Definitely Hash Table can get the count and range of variables faster. But it needs more code.

As you said, Op did not very clarify. He did not post what dataset he want, so it is not easy to understand

what op want exactly.
