Hi,

Does AFL support dynamic variable creation?

My goal is to determine the standard deviation of one or more stocks.  But I 
don't want to limit the time period to the number of variables that I have to 
write out in the formula.  I'd like to take the number of periods back as a 
parameter and then create that number of variables to hold the value from x 
number of days.

As I write this, I realize that I might be over thinking it.  I suppose I could 
take the number of periods back as a peramter and then loop through that number 
of periods totalling up the closing prices.  Something like

For I = 1 to iPeriods
    dTotal = dTotal + Close(I)
Next


Is that workable?

Thanks for any help!
