I suppose you want to use it in a gretl function. Assuming xlist is a list
containing the variables you are interested in, you may use:

loop foreach i xlist
    string $i = xlist.$i
endloop

Is it possible to access elements of a list. I need the variable name—as a string—of the i_th element of a list. Something like

 

string variable_name = varnam(ylist[i])

 

Thanks,
