    SAS Projects
    Project 1 – Categorization of patients based on count of drugs for their therapyDomain: Health CareObjective – This project aims to find out descriptive statistics & subset for specific clinical data problems. It will give them brief insight about BASE SAS procedures and data steps.Problem Statement :Count the number of patients and list of those patients
    1. Who were ever on at least one of the four drugs
    2. Who were ever on each of the four drugs
    3. Who had never been on any drug
    Output should be four datasets
    1. TYPA – Contains the list of patients from problem 1
    2. TYPB – Contains the list of patients from problem 2
    3. TYPC – Contains the list of patients from problem 3
    4. SUMMARY – – Contains the summary of counts for each of 3 problems
