making loop for parameter calculations

hi all,

i would like to make a loop. i would like to continue running a code with different parameter. if lets say there is original data X and i want to manipulate this data using a method that relies on a parameter alpha to create new data series X';

1. i have X

2. run method using alpha

3. obtain X'

i want to keep X' and do some calculation with it. if it meets a specific standard i keep it, if not i start at 1 but run with new alpha. does this make sense?

thank you very much

OK. But what's the confusing part? Just use a for-loop over the alphas.

That looks like the typical while loop

alpha=[alpha1 alpha2 ...alphan]

a=0;

k=1;

while a==0

A=alpha(k)

X=f(A)

if X==specific standard

a=1

end

k=k+1;

end
