I doubt any of that really "works". So you happen
to have the variables named "AR" and "DA" defined
as numerical values somewhere? Otherwise the expression
makes no sense at all. The leading 0 in 08 and 07 indicates
you might have a completely other illusion on what's going on.

Any reason you cannot write in a python script something like:

REQUEST.SESSION.set('some_resonable_named_variable','AR-DA-07') ?

Could you explain in plain english what your final goal
of your construction is?
