Do you want to modify the varsdict values in place? varsdict['Feq_(i,_j,_k,_l)'] *= A[i,j,k,l] which is a short-cut for this slightly longer version: temp = varsdict['Feq_(i,_j,_k,_l)'] * A[i,j,k,l] varsdict['Feq_(i,_j,_k,_l)'] = temp If you want to leave the original in place and do something else with the result: result = varsdict['Feq_(i,_j,_k,_l)'] * A[i,j,k,l] print(result) -- Steven D'Aprano "Ever since I learned about confirmation bias, I've been seeing it everywhere." -- Jon Ronson -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
