Hi, there is the following dataset where each ageX column indicates if there was an incident or not.
data dsin;
input ID age1 age2 age3 age4 age5 age6;
datalines;
1 1 0 0 1 0 0
2 0 1 1 0 0 0
3 0 0 0 1 0 0
4 0 0 0 0 0 0
5 1 0 0 0 1 0
6 0 0 1 0 0 0
;
run;
We would like to have the cumulative number of people who had an incident by age. The tricky part is that once a person has an incident and it is accounted for, if this person has incidents after that, it still counts only as 1. Let's say for ID1:it presents an incident at age1, and age4 as well. But this person can only be accounted once. The below table is the output we are looking for:
Age | age1 | age2 | age3 | age4 | age5 | age6 |
Cumulative | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 5 | 5 |

end;
keep age:;

That modification should work 🙂

Should be a faster way than this, but I'm sleep deprived today.
data dsin;
input ID age1 age2 age3 age4 age5 age6;
datalines;
1 1 0 0 1 0 0
2 0 1 1 0 0 0
3 0 0 0 1 0 0
4 0 0 0 0 0 0
5 1 0 0 0 1 0
6 0 0 1 0 0 0
;
run;
data _dsin / view=_dsin;
set dsin;
array age age1-age6;
flag=0;
do i=1 to dim(age);
if age(i) = 1 and flag=0 then flag=1;
else if age(i) = 1 and flag=1 then age(i) = 0;
end;
keep id age:;
run;
proc means data=_dsin noprint;
output out=agg1 sum=;
run;
data want;
set agg1;
array age age1-age6;
do i=2 to dim(age);
age(i) = age(i) + age(i-1);
end;
keep age:;

Hi! Thank you so much for your response. It worked perfectly. But I encountered that some of the datasets will have more than 1 incident for the same ID in the same age variable. Is it possible to account for this in the code? That is, the ID will only be accounted once, even though it reported 2 or more incidents for the same ID.

The hash OUTPUT method will overwrite a SAS data set, but not append. That can be costly. Consider voting for Add a HASH object method which would append a hash object to an existing SAS data set
Would enabling PROC SORT to simultaneously output multiple datasets be useful? Then vote for
Allow PROC SORT to output multiple datasets

It probably would be simpler not to have that wide structure to start with.
data have;
input ID @;
do age=1 to 6;
input incident @;
Cumulative=max(incident ,Cumulative);
output;
end;
datalines;
1 1 0 0 1 0 0
2 0 1 1 0 0 0
3 0 0 0 1 0 0
4 0 0 0 0 0 0
5 1 0 0 0 1 0
6 0 0 1 0 0 0
;
Then getting the sum is easy.
proc means nway sum;
class age;
var cumulative;
run;
