Is there a way to multiply together the output of a loop?

Jetpuff:
Loop: for(%a=1; %a<10; %a++)
if echoed: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Question: How do I multiply the output together?

(Yes it probably is a stupid question, I just started scripting)

Bauklotz:
Is it something like this you want?

--- Code: ---for(%i=1;%i<=10;%i++)
{
   echo(%i);
   %num = %num * %i;
}
echo(%num);

--- End code ---
Echoes the following:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
3628800

Or did you mean this:

--- Code: ---for(%i=1;%i<=10;%i++)
{
   echo(%i);
   %num = %num + %i;
}
echo(%num);

--- End code ---
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
55

Thanks a bunch ;)

Jetpuff:

for(%a=1; %a<10; %a++)
{
echo(%a);
%answer=%answer*%a;
}
echo(%answer);

I end up with zero. Why is that? Does %answer need a value?

Yes. It's like trying to multiply by nothing (zero).
