Hello,

I have a dataset like this :

IDdatedays
ID102/03/201728
ID130/03/201730
ID101/05/20177
ID110/05/201790
ID224/12/201814
ID209/01/201956
ID206/03/201920

I want to add a flag which will take 1 if there is 3 consecutive months (90 days) by ID -a gap of 1 or 2 days is allowed- otherwise will take 0 :

Why not the third obs take flag=1 ? since the gap is only two days .

The sum days of the 3 first rows is 65days < 90 days, that's why the third row will have 0 and not 1

Then the second obs ? since the gap is only two days . 29/04/2017 --> 01/05/2017
