Random selection of single measurement of each individuals from a repeated measurement data

[Cruise]

How to randomly select a single measurement of each individuals from a repeated measurement data? My original data is in shape of 'test' and resulting data would look like 'want' except its observations randomly populated.

data test;
input ID Age_at_measurement_right	Age_at_measurement_left;
cards;
3232	1.1 1.5
3232	19.3 18.3
3232	33.2 32.1
3236	1.2	1.6
3236	16.2 13.2
3236	23.1 22.1
3266	1.5 1.3
3266	19.3 18.3
3266	33.1 32.3
;

data want;
input ID Age_at_measurement_right	Age_at_measurement_left;
cards; 
3232	19.3	18.3
3236	23.1	22.1
3266	1.5	1.3
;

Two common approaches:

1. Add a random variable to each observation. 
2. Sort by group and random value.
3. Take the first record for each group. 

PROC SURVEYSELECT with N=1 and stratify on GROUP.

Hi Reeza, below code worked out. Please let me know if it looks not quite right. Hope I got it.

PROC SURVEYSELECT data=test
method=srs n=1 
seed=1235 out=test_sample;
strata id;
run;
