I have this dataset that has ID, Date, and encounter. If the dates are within 30 days apart, the encounter remains the same encounter.
I want to say something like "if the person exists only once and has only one encounter, then newvar = 1"
I also want to say "if the person exists multiple times and only has three or less encounters AND those three encounters occur within the same year (365 days), then newvar2 = 1"
I also want to say "if the person exists multiple times and has three or more encounters AND those encounters occur within mutiple years, then newvar3 = 1"
I'm not entirely sure where to start.
