Assigning variables names within a for loop

I would like to assign different names to a variable. From different datasets, I would need to convert a column to list of strings.

d={}

for i in range(0,3):
    df[i]['Tok'] = df[i].apply(lambda row: nltk.word_tokenize(row['Text']), axis=1)
    d["text_{0}".format(i)]=df[i]['Tok'].tolist()

What I would like to do is something like:

text_1=df[1]['Tok'].tolist()
text_2=df[2]['Tok'].tolist()
text_3=df[3]['Tok'].tolist()

Since I will have more than 100 datasets, it would be impossible to set manually the names.

If it is possible to assign names in this way, could you please tell me how I could do it?

Thank you

What are you going to use all those 100 variables then? – Austin May 17 '20 at 02:58
different analyses – still_learning May 17 '20 at 02:59
You could always directly work on the DataFrame columns themselves. You don't always need to have an explicit name. – r.ook May 17 '20 at 03:06
