Data have;
input a b;
datalines;

Now I want to create a data set want from have to see if there is change in b within each level of a.
So that my new data set want will have an additional variable Change and should look like this.
Want
a b Change
1 3 No
1 3 No
1 3 No
2 4 Yes
2 5 Yes
2 4 Yes
2 4 Yes
2 4 Yes
3 2 No
3 2 No
4 7 Yes
4 8 Yes
5 1 No
5 1 No
5 1 No
5 1 No
6 8 Yes
6 7 Yes
6 7 Yes
6 7 Yes
Any help would be highly appreciated.
