Hello,

I have month variables that can take on different values for each month, that is MONTH_1 might be equal to 0 while MONTH_3 might be equal to 1. What I would like to do is create a loop that generates a variable equal to the number of months where the value equals 1 (or 0 or 3 etc). The problem is, every time I create a loop it replaces the value for ALL the observations, but I really just want to know for each observation how many months the value is set to a certain number.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Zach
