I have a dataset with one record per ID. I want to make a dataset with multiple observations per ID (from wide to long).

My original dataset is like,

data have;

input id $ c1-c5 t1-t5;

cards;

1 21 23 34 45 44 22 33 44 55 66

2 21 23 34 45 44 22 33 44 55 66

;

run;

My final dataset is like,

ID    C     T

1     21    22

1     23    33

1     34    44

1     45    55

1     44    66

2     21    22

2     23    33

2     34    44

2     45    55

2     44    66

Is there a way to do the job using ARRAY?

Thanks,

HG

2 21 23 34 45 44 22 33 44 55 66

;

run;

data want(keep=id c t);

set have;

array _c(*)c:;

array _t(*) t:;

do i=1 to 5;

  c=_c(i);

  t=_t(i);

output;

end;

proc print;run;
