Hi,

Maybe not as directly as the python example. But depending on your application-needs, perhaps the following might work. You could create a variable "global" and then attach your "variables" as "attributes" to it; the attributes can then be referenced indirectly using "string references". So something like:

global = True
global@one = 0
global@two = 0
global@three = 0
print(global)

varNames = (/ "one", "two", "three" /)

count = 1
do i=0, dimsizes(varNames)-1
  global@$varNames(i)$ = count
  count = count + 1
end do

print(global)

Hope that helps¡­

 Dear all:
 I need all variables' names be stored in an array, then I loop the array to insert the value for each var.
 More specifically, like what the following python code can do:
 Can anyone tell me if this could be done in NCL?

var_names = ["one", "two", "three"]
count = 1
for name in var_names:
        globals()[name] = count
        count += 1
print one
print two
