I am trying to assign a variable name using a variable but it is not working:
name_of_variable = abc;
eval(name_of_variable) = 'simpleword';
console.log(abc);
How can I get this to work?

2There are few good reasons to do that. What is it that you're trying to achieve? – Pointy Feb 13 '17 at 19:55

Why do you want to use `eval`?? Also *"not work"* is not a proper description of what the problem is. – UnholySheep Feb 13 '17 at 19:55

var data = "abc"; eval("var " + data + "=simpleword;"); console.log(abc); – zerozero1024 Feb 13 '17 at 20:00
