Question

I have a loop that’s reading over a text file. Each time the loop finds something different, I want it to make a new variable and assign the value in that line of text to the newly created variable. So if the text file looks like this:

3
3
6
1
3
6

The program would’ve made 3 variables, one for 1, one for 3, and one for 6. How can I do this>

Answer 1

What you likely want is this…

>>> set("3 3 6 1 3 6".split())
set(['1', '3', '6'])
