Hello everybody,

I would like to create a series of integers for example a Series which contains the number 22 as an integer values for each entry.
My idea was:

declare SERIES[Integer] onem
set onem = 22

But then the following error occurs:
SX22. Expected Type SERIES[REAL], Got SERIES[INTEGER] Instead

How can I fix that problem?

Thank you for your help

Jules

You have to use GSET for any SERIES type other than SERIES[REAL] (or SERIES[COMPLEX] which is done with CSET).

dec series[integer] s
gset s rstart rend = f=StateF(t),%ranbranch(||p*f(1),(1-p)*f(2)||)

Hey thank you very much!!

And I have one more question.
I want to transform a Real into an Integer. How do I do that? My code is:

compute lags = 22
display lags
fix(lags)

but then the following error occurs:

## OP3. This Instruction Does Not Have An Option P
>>>>fix(p)<<<

Thank you very much

As you have that written, FIX(p) is a separate instruction. I'm not sure what you're trying to do in the code above, but

compute lags=fix(sqrt(500))

would make LAGS an integer that's the first value less than sqrt(500).

I create a real:
Computer lags = 22.000

And want to Transform it to an integer:
Compute lags1 = fix(lags)

Such that
Display lags1 -> 22 instead of 22.000 and the Programm should notice that lags1 is an integer

Is the Code right?

Thanks

Jules

Yes. You just wanted (in the original question)

disp lag fix(lags)

with the fix(lags) on the same line, not a second line.

Thanks you very much Tom.
