I need to combine a written part with a number I define before, to implement many new variables. For example
number=42
(['hallo',number])=anyvalue
What I want to get is
hallo42=anyvalue %or
hallo42=17
(1x1double) it is called I think. Thank you.

number=42
hallo{number} = 17;
You might think it is better to have a series of variables with names like
hallo42
hallo43
etc ...
But you will find many, many threads on this forum explaining why that is a bad programming practice.
