title: Forvalues-loop showing incorrect syntax
body: <p>I want to generate variable names that depend on given variable <code>games</code>.
  For example, if <code>games</code> is given as 3, the result is</p>
  
  <p><code>game1</code> = list of uniformly distributed values</p>
  
  <p><code>game2</code> = same, etc.</p>
  
  <p>While there are multiple examples and answers on similar questions, I cannot see why my code cannot produce the results I want</p>
  
  <p>Stata shows syntax error for the following loop:</p>
  
  <pre><code>set obs 1000
  
  forvalues i = 1(1)games {
  generate game`i' = runiform()
  }
  </code></pre>
