I want to sort data in SAS data step. What exactly I mean is: the work of proc sort should be done in data step. Is there any solution?

如果您正在寻找仅限数据步骤的解决方案,则可以使用hash table执行PROC SORT
的工作。需要注意的是,你需要足够的记忆才能做到这一点。
如果要进行简单排序,可以使用ordered:'yes'
选项加载哈希表并将其输出到新表。默认情况下,ordered:yes
将按升序对数据进行排序。您也可以指定descending
。
简单排序
data _null_;
/* Sets up PDV without loading the table */
if(0) then set sashelp.class;
/* Load sashelp.class into memory ordered by Height. Do not remove duplicates. */
dcl hash sortit(dataset:'sashelp.class', ordered:'yes', multidata:'yes');
sortit.defineKey('Height'); * Order by height;
sortit.defineData(all:'yes'); * Keep all variables in the output dataset;
sortit.defineDone();
/* Output to a dataset called class_sorted */
sortit.Output(dataset:'class_sorted');
run;
<强>去欺骗强>
要删除重复项,请执行完全相同的操作,但删除multidata
选项除外。在下表中,观察结果(8,9)和(15,16)是彼此重复的。意见9和16将被取消。
data _null_;
/* Sets up PDV without loading the table */
if(0) then set sashelp.class;
/* Load sashelp.class into memory ordered by Height. Do not keep duplicates. */
dcl hash sortit(dataset:'sashelp.class', ordered:'yes');
sortit.defineKey('Height'); * Order by height;
sortit.defineData(all:'yes'); * Keep all variables in the output dataset;
sortit.defineDone();
/* Output to a dataset called class_sorted */
sortit.Output(dataset:'class_sorted');
run;

Stu打败了我,但如果您的数据集包含一个唯一的密钥,并且您可以将整个内容整合到内存中,则可以使用散列排序,例如:
data _null_;
if 0 then set sashelp.class;
declare hash h(dataset:"sashelp.class",ordered:"a");
rc = h.definekey("age","sex","name");
rc = h.definedata(ALL:'yes');
rc = h.definedone();
rc = h.output(dataset:"class_sorted");
stop;
run;
如果你真的决心避免使用任何内置的排序方法,一种特别愚蠢的方法是将整个数据集加载到一系列临时数组中,使用手工编码算法对数组进行排序,然后再次导出:< / p>

有使用proc ds2的解决方案。
/*Just prepare dataset, because DS2 responds with an error on libraries like sashelp. */
data sql_prep;
set sashelp.class;
run;
/*Delete test dataset before ds2 func, to avoid errors*/
proc datasets nodetails nolist;
delete test;
run;
proc ds2;
data test;
method run();
set {select * from sql_prep order by Weight};
end;
enddata;
run;
quit;
