python access variable by string code example
Example: python get variable from string
some_variable = "here is a string stored in this variable"
# Get the variable name from a string by the eval() function:
# Notice how the parameter is a string but the print() function still returns the variable
print(eval("some_variable"))
# More advanced usage
import random
thing1 = "thing 1"
thing2 = "thing 2"
thing3 = "thing 3"
number = random.randint(1, 3)
variable_as_a_string = "thing" + str(number)
print(eval(variable_as_a_string))
