Creating and Assigning values to a variable within a list

Question

I want to create variables names to be assigned to each index in the values list. So Result0 = 10, Result1 = 3, Result2 = 44, Result1 = 56601. Trying to code a function that creates and assigns variables depending on the length of the values list. The Code below does not work.

Code:

values = [10,3,44,56601]
k= 0
for n in values:
    Result{k} = n
    k+=1

Expected Result

Result0 = 10
Result1 = 3
Result2 = 44
Result3 = 56601

What are you trying to achieve with this approach? Try using `dict` — bigbounty, May 13 '21 at 20:36
First you rather use a `dictionaly` instead of assigning everything to the global — Onyambu, May 13 '21 at 20:37

Don't dynamically create variables. You already have a list. *Use the list* — juanpa.arrivillaga, May 13 '21 at 21:33

As earlier posts, and @hulkinBrian pointed out similar case, this will be the approach: (credit to them all!)

dc = {}
for x in [10, 3, 44, 56601]:
    dc['Result{0}'.format(x)] = x
