Using variable i of for-loop in python

Question

What I want to do is save variable, repeatedly, but with another number.

I want to save arrays like below.

test_1 = 1
test_2 = 1
test_3 = 1
test_4 = 1
test_5 = 1

This is what I tried to do.

for i in range(1,6):
    test_i = 1

But the result was that the number 1 is saved in variable named as "test_i". It seems like change of i doesn't work at variable.

Don't so this. Use a *container*, like a `list` or a `dict` – juanpa.arrivillaga Jun 24 '19 at 01:10 — juanpa.arrivillaga, Jun 24 '19 at 01:10

What you are doing is reinitializing the variable test_i as 1.

I'm not sure you can do what you wanted to do, maybe you could look into namespaces.
