Hello SAS support community,

 

I am working on the following code but keep having errors on the THIRD PART while the first two parts are fine. Thank you so much in advance!

 

 

proc sort data=lag   out=temp2;
by key fyear dummy lagdummy;
run;


data test2;
set temp2;
by dummy notsorted;
if last.dummy;
count = _n_ - sum(lag(_n_), 0);
do _n_ = 1 to count;
set temp2;
output;
end;
run;

 

 

data final2;
set test2;
by key ;
if
lagdummy - dummy =1  then do

if (dummy = 0 and count > 2) or   ( dummy= 1 and count > 3) then output;

end;
run;

You miss a semicolon after do:

lagdummy - dummy =1  then do ;

if (dummy = 0 and count > 2) or   ( dummy= 1 and count > 3) then output;

end;
