If a = 'apple' b = 'banana' c = 'cabbage'
How can I get something like:- for i in 'abc': r = eval(i) if r == 'cabbage': r = 'coconut' actually change the object referenced by r rather than creating a new object temporarily referenced by it? I've tried playing with eval and exec without the desired effect. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
