I have some variables that I need to count up so long as the observation for them is not missing. I'm trying to do it in a loop. Can someone help me figure this out, please? Here is some sample data:

 

Obs        cares1     cares2     cares3     cares4

1                 2              1            0              4

2                 1              1            1              3

3                 3              2            4              .

4                 .               .             0              0

5                 4             0             .               1

6                 1             2             0              .

 

What I would like to acheive is this:

 

Obs           NumEndor

1                       4

2                       4                   

3                       3

4                       2

5                       3

6                       3
