Is it possible to create a variable with the name of an output of another variable
#1
I'm making a console application, and i want to create a feature where you can create your own command if you feel like it's needed. Here is my code:
else:
        print('Unknown command entered. Would you like to give this command a meaning')
        temporary_console_input = console
        console = input('Y or N? ')
        creating_new_command_temp_waiting = True
        while creating_new_command_temp_waiting == True:

            if console == 'y':
                # Placeholder
            else if console == 'Y':
                # Placeholders
            else if console == 'n':
                # Placeholders
            else if console == 'N':
                # Placeholders
            else if console == 'sys.exit(0)':
                print('Shutting down')
                sys.exit(0)
            else:
                print('Unknown Option Entered. Please try again.')
        creating_new_command_temp = console
        logger.info('Creating command: "' + console + '"')
I would like to know if there is a way to create a variable with the name of console's current state. (e.g. if console is set to 4, create a variable named 4)
