Hello,

I'd like to define variables with some specific name that has a common
prefix.
Something like this:

varDic = {'red': 'a', 'green': 'b', 'blue': 'c'}
for key, value in varDic.iteritems():
'myPrefix' + key = value


No trick, just swap a new key-value pair for each existing pair:

  for key, value in varDic.iteritems():
      varDic[myPrefix + key] = value
      del varDict[key]

Just make sure that *myPrefix* isn't an empty string!

Thanks for your answer.
However, your solution changes the key name in the dictionary.
That's not what I want I need to do. What I want is to define a new
variable which name is define as a string: 'myPrefx' + key. In the example
I give, I would get 3 variables:
myPrefixred = a
myPrefixgreen = b
myPrefixblue = c
