Nothing could be easier, surely:

 

data have;
infile cards dsd dlm=',' firstobs=2;
attrib sno age length=4;
attrib sex length=$ 1;
input sno
      age 
      sex;
cards;      
sno      age       sex
1,23,M
2,45,F
3,25,M
;
run;

data _null_;
set have;
do i = 1 to _n_;
   put sno
       age
       sex;
   end;
run;
