Code involving an incremental value (100 times)

[DiG]

Hello dear experts,

I am facing a challenge today: need to find a sum of payments for groups of subjets ('Name' in the table below) that fall within assets ranges: 

name	assets	payment
A	100,400	456
B	300,500	1344
C	100,800	357
D	1,800,000	7348
E	300,003	467
F	340,000	966
G	15,000,900	34533

H

785,004,000

7238

The ranges start from 100,000 and increment every 100,000 until 10,000,000. Whatever is greater than 10,000,000 is grouped together. So, there are 100 assets ranges:

100,001-200,000

200,001-300,000

...

1,900,001-2,000,000

2,000,001-2,100,000

...

10,000,000 and over

For example, payment for A and C will be summarized together. Same goes with B, E, and F. Also G and H.

I know it should be a loop with an incremental value to calculate sum of payments for each asset range but I can't figure it out. Need your help please!

Thanks

I'm not sure what that means, but a SAS way of doing this easily is: 

1. Create a format that contains your intervals. 

2. Apply the format using a PUT statement to identify your groups.

3. Then sum using PROC MEANS. 

Example for #1
