dear all,
i need to aggregate the data using weight.
the original data
cat catid x weight
1 1 a .33
1 2 a .33
1 3 b .33
2 1 c .5
2 2 a .5
3 1 d 1
4 1 c .25
4 2 d .25
4 3 b .25
4 1 c .25
the aggregated data
x freq
a 1.166(=.33+.33+.5)
b .58(=.33+.25)
c 1(=.5+.25+.25)
d 1.25(=1+.25)
please note i need to create weight (the proportion within the
category) because it does not exist in the original data.
this is to avoid double counting.
the number of rows is 9m.
the number of variables is 100.
thank you in advance.
