Varianble Name function

MittRamgobin

Hi,

 

 

Is there a function that returns the name of the variable rather than its contents.

 

For example.

 

T = 1

R= 2

S= 3

 

P = (T, R, S)

Is there a fucntion that if I do function(T) it will return T?

Please see Posting Code blocks in the new GeoNet‌

Suggested change, use a list, and create a list of labels in the same order:

Transmission = [T330OH, T330UG, T220OV, T132OH, T132UG, T66OV, T66UG, T33OH, T33UG, TransStruc, Substation]


TransLabels = ["T330OH", "T330UG", "T220OV", "T132OH"  (etc)

Then at the end:

k = 0


for Struc in Transmission:
    outputPath = r"S:\SupportServices\LGAShapefiles"
    basefileName = str(LGA2)+str(Struc))
    fileFormat= '.shp'
    finalDest = os.path.join(outputPath,basefileName+Translabels + fileFormat)
    arcpy.Clip_analysis(Struc,"LGAlyr", finalDest)


    k += 1


print "Process ended"

An unrelated comment, you seem to be using ListFeatureClasses (which returns a list) when you really want a path to a single dataset:

maybe instead of

T330OH = arcpy.ListFeatureClasses("GISTRAN.Trans_330kV_OH_Carrier","All","GISTRAN.Transmission")

you mean:

T330OH = os.path.join("GISTRAN.Transmission", "GISTRAN.Trans_330kV_OH_Carrier")
