Re: [ferret_users] creating variables in a loop

["Young, Paul" <paul.j.young@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Lina,

Something like this will work:

use coads_climatology
repeat/range=1:12:1/name=imon ( def symbol imon2 = `imon` ; let var_($imon2) = sst[l=`imon`] )

…creates 12 variables, each with a single month’s data. Just change the 12 to a 40, and add in your calculation.
