Re: [Gretl-users] Sequential naming of variables

I'm trying to find a way of generating variable names
automatically.
My question is simple: is there a way of controlling the name of the
output variable in a different way than what is used above? I mean, how
can I get output in variables with name: ret1, ret2,..., ret12? Is there
any sequential command that can be added to ret*?
You can use the numerical value i (not $i) in the loop and stick it into
a sprintf() function for example to get a string, say s, that you then
can use as @s.
Or take a look at the genseries() function; it returns a number which is
counterintuitive at first sight, but you can build up lists of series
like that, and the series also get created. There are examples in the
doc I believe.
