Creating or assigning variables from a dictionary in Python

Question

I tried to ask a question normally once in here but nobody understands what I want to ask. So I\'ve found example in PHP.

// $_POST = array(\'address\' =>

You can use the locals() function to access the local symbol table and update that table:

>>> mydict = {'raw': 'data', 'code': 500}
>>> locals().update(mydict)
>>> raw
'data'
>>> code
500

Modifying the symbol table that way is quite unusual, though, and probably not the way to go. Maybe you need to change your design so you can use the mydict dictionary instead of actual variables.
