How to create a variable from a string?

Question

Jinja

We need to create some similar functions, but different in name and slightly in content in Jinja. Is it possible to create function names from strings using a loop, iterating over an array with strings?
Something like exec(str)in python.

for i in ["pow2", "pow3", "pow4"]:
    exec(f"{i} = lambda x: x ** {i[-1]}")
print(pow2(2), pow2(5))
print(pow3(2), pow3(5))
print(pow4(2), pow4(5))
"""
--> 4 25
--> 8 125
--> 16 625
"""

Answer 1

It is highly undesirable to do this even in ordinary python code, and even more so in the template engine code.
