Yeah, this seems like a bad idea. =A0What exactly are you trying to do h= ere?

Maybe using a dictionary is what you want?

=

d =3D {
<= font face=3D"courier new,monospace">=A0 =A0 'first' : 'banana&#= 39;,
=A0= =A0 'second' : 'apple',
=A0 =A0 'third= ' =A0: 'mango'
}

for key, value in d.items():
=A0 =A0 = print key, value


However I'm still not sure why you'd want to do th= is. =A0

Dear Group,
If I take a list like the following:

fruits =3D ['banana', 'apple', =A0'mango']
for fruit in fruits:
=A0 =A0 print 'Current fruit :', fruit

Now,
if I want variables like var1,var2,var3 be assigned to them, we may take, var1=3Dbanana,
var2=3Dapple,
var3=3Dmango

but can we do something to assign the variables dynamically I was thinking<= br> of
var_series=3D['var1','var2','var3']
for var in var_series:
=A0 =A0for fruit in fruits:
=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 print var,fruits

If any one can kindly suggest.

Regards,
Subhabrata

NB: Apology for some alignment mistakes,etc.

Why would you want to do that? Creating names dynamically like that is
a bad idea. Just keep them in a list, like they are already.
