Hi,

Does anyone know how I can quickly use the name of a ndarray as a string?
for example, I have
In [54]: index=np.arange(100)

then I want to use the name 'index' as a key in a new dictionary:
d3=dict()
d3['index']=index

I can do it like the way above, but I have many ndarray variables that need
to be included in the dictionary.
is there something like:
d3[index.name()]=index
while index.name() would equal the string 'index'?

I hope my question is clear. thanks to all.

Chao
