My data looks like this:

data dat;
   input id ind01 ind02 ind03 ind04 ind05 ind06;
   datalines;
   1 0 0 0 0 4 0
   2 0 0 1 0 3 0 
   3 4 4 4 4 4 4
   4 1 2 3 2 2 2
   5 1 3 0 0 2 0 
   6 1 2 3 4 2 2
   ;
run;

I want to create a variable to stratify the rows into three groups: 

group A: have either 0 or 4 for all variables ind01-ind06; 

group B: have any of 1 or 2 or 3, for all variables in01-ind06;

group C: change from (0 or 4) to (1 or 2 or 3) (or vice versa) for all variables ind01-ind06;

 

The ideal dataset looks like this:

data want;
   input id ind01 ind02 ind03 ind04 ind05 ind06 type $;
   datalines;
   1 0 0 0 0 4 0 A
   2 0 0 1 0 3 0 C
   3 4 4 4 4 4 4 A
   4 1 2 3 2 2 2 B
   5 1 3 0 0 2 0 C
   6 1 2 3 4 2 2 C
   ;
run;

I am not sure how to create the variable since it needs tracking changes across multiple columns. Any suggestions? Thanks!!
