Hello All,
I am stuck with this issue where I want to add when there is change in flag value. Example:
ID Flag
1 0
1 1
1 1
1 1
2 1
2 0
2 0
2 1
2 1
2 0
2 0
3 1
3 1
3 1
3 1
4 0
4 0
4 0
4 1
4 1
Output expected:
ID Flag Cnt
1 0 1
1 1 2
1 1 2
1 1 2
2 1 1
2 0 2
2 0 2
2 1 3
2 1 3
2 0 4
2 0 4
3 1 1
3 1 1
3 1 1
3 1 1
4 0 1
4 0 1
4 0 1
4 1 2
4 1 2
Use the BY mechanism:

;
data want;
set have;
by id flag notsorted;
if first.id then cnt = 0;
if first.flag then cnt + 1;
run;
