Hi All,
I have a requirement where I need a count based on the certain condition.

For example :

Event
-------
Y
N
N
Y
N
Y
Y
Y
----------------------------------
Total Count:5 (i.e, The no of "Y")
----------------------------------

Can any one suggest me on this.

Thanks for your help in advance!

Regards,
Gopinath

How about a Define
Define file whatever
CNT/I3 = IF EVENT EQ 'Y' THEN 1 ELSE 0;
END

Depending on how the value of Event is calculated, you can do this in a define or compute:

EVT_CNT/I8=IF EVENT EQ 'N' THEN 1 ELSE 0;



Then you can total it as you wish.

Gopinath, I am suprised you are asking such a basic question!

Apart from what is suggested above, there are many ways to count the number of an occurance of a value.

Such as:
TABLE FILE x
COUNT FIELD
BY FIELD
END


OR for just the Y's
TABLE FILE x
COUNT FIELD
BY FIELD
WHERE FIELD EQ 'Y'
END


I would suggest that you become more familiar with DEFINE and COMPUTE and what you can do with them.

SUM CNT.{RECORDS}
BY EVENT

any granular fieldname will do for the record count
