So you mean just take a list of numbers like 1,2,3,4 and get 1*2*3*4 ?
if so, then something like this should do it (with the input set to List Access):

private void RunScript(List<double> x, ref object A)
{
double MassMultiply = 1;
for (int i = 0; i < x.Count; i++)
{
MassMultiply *= x[i];
}
A = MassMultiply;
}

Hi Alpha,

then now this is similar to what Daniel suggested, but you store the partial results:

private void RunScript(List<double> x, ref object A)

{

   double massMultiply = 1;

   double[] interim = new double[x.Count]; //array of doubles



   for (int i = 0; i < x.Count; i++)

   {

      massMultiply *= x[i];

      interim[i] = massMultiply;

   }



   A = massMultiply;

   B = interim;

}
