At this point, var is a list of IntVar instances.

You are iterating over the element of var, so each time through the 
loop, r is an IntVar instance.  But, you're using r to index a list in

That's what

means.  I suspect what you want is to retrieve the integer value from r, 
and use that as the index:

>     helper = var[r.get()]

but without knowing more about your code, that's just a guess.

At a deeper level, however, there's something that fundamentally doesn't 
make sense here.  You are iterating over the values in var, then using 
each value as an index again.  That's not *wrong*, but it seems unlikely 
to be what you want.
