BuildSeries
Assembles up to ten individual numbers into a single column, in the order you supply them. Use it to hand-build a short series, such as scenario cases or a set of assumed cash flows, without creating a source table first.
Inputs

V2 | Value (a single number) | Yes |
V3 | Value (a single number) | Yes |
V4 | Value (a single number) | Yes |
V5 | Value (a single number) | Yes |
V6 | Value (a single number) | Yes |
V7 | Value (a single number) | Yes |
V8 | Value (a single number) | Yes |
V9 | Value (a single number) | Yes |
Outputs
| Output | Produces |

Result | Series (a list of numbers) |
Settings
Typed in on the node or set by the assistant, not wired.
| Setting | Default | Notes |
|---|---|---|
Count | 5 | How many of the ten value slots (V0 through V9) to include, in order. Default 5, maximum 10. |
Example
You want to test a project's return under three growth assumptions. Wire the NPV result of each scenario branch into V0, V1, and V2, say 1,850,000 (bear), 2,400,000 (base), 3,100,000 (bull), and set Count to 3. The three values become one column you can feed into a bar chart for a side-by-side scenario comparison, with a Labels input naming the cases.
Tips
Each slot takes either a wired value from another node (a Constant or an Aggregate result, for example) or is left empty, in which case it contributes 0. Count controls how many slots are read; leave it at the number of values you actually filled, or the extra slots pad the column with zeros. For series longer than ten values, start from a table column instead.
