Hello

I want to create a new variable called X_new that will get following values:

IF x>=5000 and X<6000 then X_new=5000

IF X>=6000 then x_new will be the the round up by 1000 value

so expected values of x_new are:

X=5100 x_new=5000

X=5902 x_new=5000

X=7812 x_new=8000

X=12210 x_new=13000

X=5988 x_new=6000

X=7102 x_new=8000

X=7980 x_new=8000

What is the way to do it please?
