I have a requirement as below:
myConfigFile.py
NAME1='Rahul Singh'
NAME2='R Singh Bajaj'
myMainClass.py
from myConfigFile.py import *
def printName(NAME):
print('Name is : '+NAME)
for i in range(1,3):
printName(Name+i) **##the value passed is 'NAME1'**
Current Output:
Name is :Name1
Name is :Name2
Expected Output:
Name is :Rahul Singh
Name is :R Singh Bajaj
How can I get the desired output?

It's taking NAME1 as string rather than to take as variable.

While the answer of @madforstrength answers your question directly, yet I believe that likely a slightly different design of your programme would make the task for you much easier: use dicts or list and you might stop needing to compose the variable names - which is quite fragile. E.g. you could create a dict likemydict = {'Rahul Sing': {'related property': 1, 'other_property': 2}, 'Singh Bajaj': {'related property': 2, 'anything else': "blödsinn"}}. You then can reference the properties related to the names very easily with the name:mydict.get('Rahul Singh').get('related property')

And you would iterate over the single names just by iterating over the dict:for (name,values) in mydict.items(): print("Name: {}".format(name))

You need to replace
printName(Name+i)
with
printName(eval("NAME" + str(i)))
