Can Python create a variable "on-the-fly". For example I would like something like...
make_variable('OSCAR', 'the grouch'); print OSCAR; ...to output... the grouch Anything like this in Python? And in case anyone is interested, I want to instantiate a set of variables based on environment variables without using os.environ everywhere by having a look instantiate Python variables of the appropriate type.
