Dear All,
I have the input as below where I want to duplicate the rows based on the count, like if I have the count 4 then i want to duplicate that 3 more time, if I have 3 then i want duplicate the rows 2 more times. Appreciate your response.
data have;
input count name$;
cards;
4 sample1
3 sample2
4 sample3
;
data want;
4 sample1
4 sample1
4 sample1
4 sample1
3 sample2
3 sample2
3 sample2
4 sample3
4 sample3
4 sample3
4 sample3
Try a do loop with an explicit output statement.
Thank you I tried below code and it worked
data want;
set have;
do i = 1 to count;
output;
end;
run;
