Hi Tenorio,

You may be better off using an array and adding each item to the respective index.

e.g.

n = 100; //number of variables
array = newArray(n); //create the array

for (i = 0; i < n; i++){
  array[i] = <some calculated value>;
}

//use the values
result = array[17] * array[23]; //to use the values at the 23d and 17th indices

Note, unlike Matlab, IJ macro and Java are zero-indexed ('first'/zeroth element of an array is at array[0]).
