I'm not sure what problem you're having, except that var is a dict.
I just verified the following works in the interactive shell:

So you have 2 ways of creating an empty dict, and then you just assign
values to keys,
Here's a demo of the loop construct
>>> for x in range(2, 7):
... vardict[x] = chr(ord('a') + x) + chr(ord('z') - x)
...
>>> print vardict
{1: 'one', 2: 'cx', 3: 'dw', 4: 'ev', 5: 'fu', 6: 'gt'}
>>>
(I reused the vardict from above top when doing the near above loop)
Hope this helps; if you're still getting errors, you should post a sample
of your code that produces the error.
