Hi guys,

 

Need some help while flagging visits per subject id.

 

Example data :

 

data task1;
format pt best12. ht best12. wt best12. colldate $10. sex $8.;
input pt ht wt colldate $10. sex $8.;
cards;
1560401 155 70 22-Mar-06 Male
1560401 155 75 22-Jan-05 Male
1560402 150 60 03-Apr-05 Female
1560402 150 75 22-Jan-06 Female
1560403 165 70 22-Mar-06 Male
1560403 165 75 22-Jan-05 Male
1560404 150 60 03-Apr-05 Male
1560404 150 75 22-Jan-06 Male
1560405 145 50 22-Jan-06 Male
1560405 145 55 22-Jan-05 Male
1560406 150 80 03-Apr-05 Male
1560406 150 75 11-Apr-05 Male
1560407 165 70 15-Mar-06 Male
1560408 150 60 12-Dec-05 Female
1560408 150 75 22-Jan-06 Female
1560409 99 70 22-Oct-06 Male
1560409 99 75 22-May-05 Male
1560410 150 60 03-Dec-05 Male
1560410 150 105 22-Jan-06 Male
run;

 

I would like to create new variable called VISIT. VISIT should be = 10 for patients with first visit (earliest), VISIT = 20 for last visit (later) and VISIT = 30 if patient had only one visit. Looking forward for your help 🙂
