Hello,<br>
<br>
I'm having a problem with what I'm sure is a simple task. I want to<br>
define a scalar to convert a slope (i.e. units/year) into a trend line<br>
over several years. I'm using this to detrend a time series.<br>
Basically I just need to construct a simple scalar (i.e. variable = 1 2<br>
3 4 5...) or a variable that equals the year of each entry of my dataset<br>
(i.e. variable = 1991 1992 1993 1994 1995...) that I can multiply by my<br>
slope values. I can use tloop to create the right dimensions (variable<br>
= 1 1 1 1 1...) but I can't seem to get the values to increase for each<br>
time step.<br>
<br>
Imagine I could either create a datafile manually and read it in or<br>
somehow extract the year information from the existing dataset into a<br>
user defined variable.<br>
<br>
Is there an equivalent of 'define variable(t=2) = 2'? I know this<br>
syntax is wrong.<br>
<br>
Any advice would be appreciated.<br>
