Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1

Dear Users;
 
Suppose I have a data set with 900 columns as follows.
 
data a;
input a1-a300 b1-b300 c1-c300;
cards;
...............................................
So would like create a data set that has 300 columns. That is I need to sum all columns as
a1+b1+c1 =first column of new data set
a2+b2+c2=second column of new data set
a3+b3+c3=Third column of new data set
...
....
and so on.
Is there any practical way to do that.
 
Thanks in advance,
 
Oslo
