You are using ln as indicator variable in your for loop *and* you are incrementing/assigning into it. The variable is already incremented automatically and you can't assign to indicator variables (which is what the error message tells you, and the text in the error messages manual explains in more detail). Unless you want a side effect (you want to increment with 2 in which case you can't use FOR but need WHILE) you can safely remove ln := ln + 1
