Just to give an idea: maybe use dictionary?
>>> fortunes = {'red': {1: 'be happy', 2: "don't worry"},
... 'blue': {3: 'monday', 4: 'tuesday'}}
>>> color = 'red'
>>> num = 2
>>> fortunes[color][num] # works like charm
"don't worry"
>>> fortunes['purple'][1] # but throws an error if there is no such a key
/.../
KeyError: 'purple'One can use try...except to handle non-existing keys (alternatively perform input validation):try:
fortune = fortunes[color][num]
# do something with fortune
except KeyError:
# handle situation of incorrect input
