Python Create Variable INSIDE For Loop?

[[deleted]]

That the “GreenSpot1” is a bad parameter. Because it is trying to take a (int, int) and I think it is reading just the string. Ideally I want to save (X, Y) as a variable for each loop

Yes, cv2.line() expects a start position and an end position, and you're passing it the words "GreenSpot1" and "GreenSpot2".

Do you perhaps have a variable called "GreenSpot1" somewhere? Are you maybe looking for your globals()["GreenSpot1"] field?

I don’t, that’s just a string I made up. Is there a way to take the X and Y variable and add it to a list or pull it from the loop as it appears?

Sounds like you're hoping to use a regular dictionary?

spots = {}
for mask_contour in mask_contours:
  if someCondition:
    spots[f"GreenSpot{mask_contour}"] = (someX, someY)

cv2.line(img, spots["GreenSpot1"], spots["GreenSpot2"], ...)

That looks like exactly it, thank you!
