how can i change a variable name while the code is running?

Question

i want to name a variable with an input(), but i dont know any way that would let me. like this:
a = input()
'a' + 'added_name' = 1

the variable should be named with the string a, followed by 'added_name'... but id doesn't work this way... :(

Answer 1

a = input() #input 1
vars()['a'+a] = 100
print(a1) # ouputs 100

Answer 2

Samuel Sluga Replace line 3 with this
print(vars()['a'+a])

Answer 3

CeePlusPlus it is possible in python. See my code

Answer 4

Ore Adeleye oh I did not know that! Very interesting! Thanks! :)

Answer 5

Samuel Sluga I must add, Manipulating variables this way is a bad practice and I would advice that you do it just for fun. Not in a production environment where memory management is important.

Answer 6

Ore Adeleye pretty interesting... Thanks for sharing!
𝐊𝐢𝐢𝐛𝐨 𝐆𝐡𝐚𝐲𝐚𝐥 it is;)

Answer 7

Answer 9

Answer 10

Ore Adeleye ok, thanks for the advice, but i see this as my only option for now

Answer 11

𝐊𝐢𝐢𝐛𝐨 𝐆𝐡𝐚𝐲𝐚𝐥 for it to work, you must change all the parameters in the right way. it worked with me, so...

Answer 12

𝐊𝐢𝐢𝐛𝐨 𝐆𝐡𝐚𝐲𝐚𝐥 as the variable is named a1 it it pretty clear to only work with 1...
As Ore Adeleye already mentioned, such "tricks" should be handled very carefully...

Answer 13

𝐊𝐢𝐢𝐛𝐨 𝐆𝐡𝐚𝐲𝐚𝐥 yeah but then he said print(vars()['a' + a])
