SAS: turn rows into a matrix

Hi i'm working on a project for summer school and the person teaching likes to work by row. I think it would be beneficial to turn it into a matrix and work with arrays.

The current dataset looks like this:

data longdata;
input var1 var2 Value;
datalines;

rowone colone 1
rowone coltwo 1
rowone colthree 2
rowone colfour 3
rowtwo colone 1
rowtwo coltwo 1
rowtwo colthree 1
rowtwo colfour 2
rowthree colone 3
rowthree coltwo 3
rowthree colthree 3
rowthree colfour 4
rowfour colone 1
rowfour coltwo 3 
rowfour colthree 3
rowfour colfour 3
;
run;

I'd like to turn the above into this, preferably through a by statement:

data matrixdata;
input var1-var4;
datalines;

       colone coltwo colthree colfour
rowone       1      1      2        2
rowtwo       1      1      1        2
rowthree     3      3      3        4
rowfour      1      3      3        3
;
run;

Proc transpose is excellent for transforming categorical data into other layout forms.

proc transpose data=have out=want;
  by var1 notsorted;
  id var2;
  var value;
run;

Despite looking like an array the data is not implicitly an array. To be a 4x4 array during a single implicit data step iteration the incoming data set would really want 16 variables per row, say v1-v16, with values 1 1 2 3 1 1 1 2 3 3 3 4 1 3 3 3. Each row would correspond one instance of the array.

data want2;
  retain v1-v16;
  array v (16) v1-v16;
  set have end=end;
  v(_n_) = value;
  if end;
  keep v:;
run;

data _null_;
  set want2;
  array m(4,4) v1-v16;
  do row = 1 to dim(m,1);
  do col = 1 to dim(m,2);
    put row= col= m(row,col)=;
  end;
  end;
run;
