I wanted to compute clopper Pearson confidence interval for the all the variables I have and wanted to know what's the simplest way. A sample variable I have can be  

ID

test

1

Y

2

Y

3

N

4

.

5

.

6

N

7

N

so among the 7 subjects, 2 were missing, 3 had no test, 2 had tested. I want to model the probability of being tested in SAS

PROC Star

It's an option in PROC FREQ.  *See The FREQ Procedure and Example 47.4 Binomial Proportions 

 

 

Here's a usage with your data:

 

data have;
  input ID  @3 test $1.;
datalines;
1 Y
2 Y
3 N
4  
5  
6 N
7 N
run;

proc freq data=have;
  tables test / binomial (clopperpearson) ;
run;

 

--------------------------
The hash OUTPUT method will overwrite a SAS data set, but not append. That can be costly. Consider voting for Add a HASH object method which would append a hash object to an existing SAS data set

Would enabling PROC SORT to simultaneously output multiple datasets be useful? Then vote for
Allow PROC SORT to output multiple datasets
