Dear Riccardo, Kehl and Artur,

Thanks a lot for your help! I'd tried all the options you gave me and
my final script looks like this:

<script>
scalar n=0
loop for (n=6;n<=24;n=n*2) --quiet
    scalar m = $T - n + 1
    loop j=2..nelemY --quiet
        matrix R$n_$j = zeros(m,1)
        loop i=1..m --quiet
            loop c=1..n --quiet
                row = i + n - c
                R$n_$j[i] += r$j[row, c]
            endloop
        endloop
    endloop
    matrix mci$n = R$n_2 + R$n_3
endloop
</script>

Now, because I just need the values for 6, 12 and 24, I'm trying to
substitute the second line "loop for (n=6;n<=24;n=n*2)" for this:

loop for (n=6;n=12;n=24)

But the script isn't working. Any hints?

Best regards,
Henrique

Or, if your index is something like of a geometric series as it seems to
be (let's say 6, 12, 24, 48, and so on) and too long to do manually
you can try this one:
<script>
scalar count=0
loop for (count=6;count<=24;count=count*2) --quiet
<instructions>
endloop
<\script>

cheers,
artur
