make_series
Syntax Format
make_series([name])
Overview
The make_series function explicitly creates a series. Use the set method to set the current value. This function is rarely needed. The primary use is to overcome the limitations of the underlying engine, which does not treat numeric values as series.
Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Purpose | 
|---|---|---|
| name | string | Optional name for the series | 
Returns: series.
Example
cg = make_series()
cg:set(1)
