Hi
I have data like the following:
quarter | area | naics | agegrp | hires | |
2001 | 1 | 1 | 11 | 1 | 604 |
2001 | 1year | 1 | 11 | 2 | 416 |
2001 | 1 | 89 | 11 | 1 | 55 |
2001 | 1 | 89 | 11 | 2 | 86 |
2001 | 1 | 1 | 51 | 1 | 203 |
2001 | 1 | 1 | 51 | 2 | 143 |
2001 | 1 | 89 | 51 | 1 | 12 |
2001 | 1 | 89 | 51 | 2 | 8 |
2001 | 2 | 1 | 11 | 1 | 300 |
2001 | 2 | 1 | 11 | 2 | 256 |
2001 | 2 | 89 | 11 | 1 | 45 |
2001 | 2 | 89 | 11 | 2 | 67 |
2001 | 2 | 1 | 51 | 1 | 56 |
2001 | 2 | 1 | 51 | 2 | 76 |
2001 | 2 | 89 | 51 | 1 | 12 |
2001 | 2 | 89 | 51 | 2 | 7 |
2001 | 3 | 1 | 11 | 1 | 412 |
2001 | 3 | 1 | 11 | 2 | 365 |
2001 | 3 | 89 | 11 | 1 | 42 |
2001 | 3 | 89 | 11 | 2 | 56 |
2001 | 3 | 1 | 51 | 1 | 532 |
2001 | 3 | 1 | 51 | 2 | 432 |
2001 | 3 | 89 | 51 | 1 | 34 |
2001 | 3 | 89 | 51 | 2 | 12 |
I am trying to create something like:
year | quarter | naics | hiresN |
2001 | 1 | 11 | 1161 |
2001 | 1 | 51 | 366 |
2001 | 2 | 11 | 668 |
2001 | 2 | 51 | 151 |
2001 | 3 | 11 | 875 |
2001 | 3 | 51 | 1010 |
where hiresN is the sum of hires in the first data set over counties and age groups
How could I code this?
You could use:
proc summary data=have nway;
class year quarter naics;
var hires;
output out=want sum=hiresN;
run;
HTH,
Art
If you are familiar with PROC SQL then you can use that also.
PROC SQL;
SELECT YEAR,QUARTER,NAICS,SUM(HIRES) AS HIRESN
FROM NEWDS
GROUP BY YEAR, QUARTER, NAICS;
QUIT;
Thanks
