Hi, How would I get it so the output looks like:
Ex:
1. Programming
2. Is
3. Cool
4. Programming
2. Is
3. Cool
...
Thanks
No worries. See if you can use this as a template
Data have;
infile datalines dsd dlm=",";
input name :$20.;
datalines;

run;
data want;
set have;
if mod(_N_, 3) = 2 then name = 'Is';
if mod(_N_, 3) = 0 then name = 'Cool';
run;
hhmmm... is this what you are looking for?
Data have;
length name $15;
do j=1 to 1000;
do i=1 to 3;
if i=1 then do; name="Programming"; output; end;
if i=2 then do; name="Is"; output;end;
if i=3 then do; name="Cool"; output;end;
end;
end;
run;
I don't understand this. If that's your logic, then the word 'is' will be in the 2'nd row. And in the 5'th row. Which is not even?
My mistake, but hopefully I made it understandable when I said I was looking for an output that looked like
OBS name
1 Programming
2 Is
3 Cool
4 Programming
5 is
6 Cool
....
Sorry for the mix up

Anytime 🙂
