How to create a list of variables, as well attributes, like myVar1, myVar2, myVar3, etc, with no hardcode?

What I find:

//Variables:
string myVar1 = "text1";
string myVar2 = "text2";
string myVar3 = "text3";
//...

//Attributes:
s@myAttrib1 = myVar1;
s@myAttrib2 = myVar2;
s@myAttrib3 = myVar3;
//...

What I tried:

int i = 0;

for (i=0; i<5; i++);
    string myVar+itoa(i) = "text+"itoa(i);
    s@myAttrib+itoa(i) = myVar+itoa(i);

It seems only works for string value, and not at time variable/attrib creation.

Thanks!

setpointattrib() and similar functions might be helpful in this case

int i = 0;

for (i=0; i<5; i++)
{
setpointattrib(0, "my_var_" + itoa(i), @ptnum, itoa(i), "set");
}
