Is it possible to refer to a variable by taking its name from two elements?
for example:
val a1 = 10
val a2 = 5
val n = 1
//val b = an
The short answer is NO. If you want to do look up dynamically, you will have to make your own structure like a Map.
What you ask looks like “dynamic evaluation” in scripting langage. The closest Kotlin features are reflection API and property references.

gidds answer is what you want. The reason being is that you are asking for a structure to hold your values. And you want to look up those values based on a name or number.
Gidds’ answer already gives you list (I would ignore arrays for now) but make sure you learn about map as well.
