I have a data set which has two time points at 20 and 24 hrs with corresponding Cp values. However in some cases the 24 hour sample may be missing. In those cases I would like to insert a 24 hr time sample with time=24 and cp=0.5*lag(cp) which is the current cp value at 20 hrs. I have written code which does not give an error but it does not work. I need to know how to edit the code to get it to work?
DATA SAMPLE;
INPUT ID TIME CP;
DATALINES;
1 20 27
1 24 15
2 20 50
2 24 10
3 20 30
4 20 15
;
DATA EXPAND (KEEP= ID TIME CP CP1 CP2 );
SET SAMPLE ;
TIME1=LAG(TIME);
TIME2=TIME;
CP1=CP;
CP2=LAG(CP);
OUTPUT;
DO ID=1 TO 4;
IF TIME2 = . THEN DO ;
TIME2=24;
OUTPUT;
CP1=0.5*CP2;
OUTPUT;
END;
END;
PROC PRINT;
RUN;
