How can I convert string to keyword?

Question

https://code.sololearn.com/crjHLZDky29i/?ref=app

The string doesn't get recognized as the assigned keyword and I can't do string calculations otherwise.

Answer 1

print(eval("bobobo")+eval("bobobo"))

With eval you can interpret strings as expressions.

There's probably a better way. Wanna describe what exactly you're planning to do?

Answer 2

Thank you.

I have no plans for this, I'm learning my first language and trying to see in which ways I can or cannot use different functions, so I can find solutions more easily in the future, if need arises.

Answer 3

I might add that you can only use eval for strings that have a value.

If you want to parse whole code, you'll need exec instead of eval.

So for example:

exec('while True: print("Hello!")')
