I have a table with the following structure
I need to store in a new column the names of columns where in their records is 1, here is an example of what I want to do, the names of the columns can be separated with , when I store it in that new variable called list as seen in the image highlighted in yellow
This is a very difficult arrangement of data to work with, and should be avoided in most cases.
What would you do with this new variable once you have it?
I do not recommend this.
data want;
set have;
array r ACCESO_ADMIN_JUSTICIA -- SEGURIDAD_SOCIAL;
length listado $200;
do over r;
if r = 1 then listado = catx(',', listado, vname(r));
end;
run;
