Do what the error message says: variables Cc_a q(3)
As flexible as the variable statement may be, it can only be used to declare a single variable, which can be inconvenient if you have a lot of variables to declare. For this reason, the variables statement is provided which allows you to declare multiple variables; i.e.,
variables x1 x2 x3 y1(10) y2(10,10,10);
The one limitation of the variables command is that it cannot declare complex, integer, or structured variables. These must be declared one at a time, using the singular variable command.
