I have a data that kind of looks like this: I have 2310 subjects, 3 Treatments(1,2,3) and The variable X which is X(Age factor, Treatment) so X12 would be age factor 1 and treatment 2. 

 

data have;
input  Subject  Treatment X;
datalines;
 1            1     X12
 2            2     X12
 3            3     X13
 4            1     X11
 5            2     X13
 6            3     X12
 7            1     X11
 8            2     X12
 9            1     X11
 10           3     X13
.......................
2310 3 X12 ;

I have to count the number of X's using the variable Z so Z11=#of X11's , Z12=#of X12's and so on but if the last number in the X and T is the same then you add one to the allocation.

So Z11=X11+1 if T=1, Z12=X12+1 If T=2 and Z13=X13+1 if T=3.  If last number of X and T don't correspond to each other then it would stay the same:

Z11=X11,if T=2 or T=3

Z12=X12 if T=2 or T=1

Z13=Z13. if T=1 or T=2

I also have to define a function where:

M1=std(Z11,Z12,Z13) where T=1 and Z11=Z11+1

M2=std(Z11,Z12,Z13) where T=2 and Z12=Z12+1

M3=std(Z11,Z12,Z13) where T=3 and Z13=Z13+1

 

In the end my result should look like this:

Z11 Z12 Z13 Z21 Z22 Z23 Z31 Z32 Z33

20   25   10   12    15  18    19  30    25

 

G1:263

G2:212

G3:258

 

So far I have this is the code I have:

data count;
set dynamic;
z11=0;
z12=0;
z13=0;
if Y="X11" then do;
z11=z11+1;
if T=1 then Z11=Z11+1;;
end;
else if Y="X12" then do;
z12=z12+1;
if T=2 then Z12=Z12+1;
end;
else if Y="X13" then do;
z13=z13+1;
if T=3 then z13=z13+1;
end;
run;

I am having trouble on how to figure out the function in the code above as I would need the counts of Z11 when T=1 and Z11 when T is not equal to 1. Any help would be appreciated.

Can you post the expected result of the data you posted?

 

Proc summary is my first choice, when things have to be counted. If i understood the rules you have to apply, then the z??-counter is increased if substr(x, 3, 1) = Treatment. That rule can be used in a where statement:

 

data have;
input Subject Treatment  X $;
datalines;
 1 1 X12
 2 2 X12
 3 3 X13
 4 1 X11
 5 2 X13
 6 3 X12
 7 1 X11
 8 2 X12
 9 1 X11
 10 3 X13
 ;
 run;

proc summary data=have(where=(put(Treatment, 1.) = substr(x, 3, 1))) nway;
   class x;
   output out=work.counted(drop= _type_ rename=(_freq_ = count));
run;

Things to do: change x to z in Varible x and transpose it.
