Let's say I have a dictionary like this:

```
my_dict = {
           hey: onevalue,
           hat: twovalue,
           how: threevalue
           }

```

Is there any way to account for a reference to a key while having a variable, say a number in it?

such as my\_dict['hey1'] = onevalue
or my\_dict['hey2'] = onevalue

I'm trying to allow for such a variable instead of stripping the numbers from the reference to the key. Thank you in advance.
