This may be something like what you are trying to achieve: # untested def fx(arg): pass def fy(arg): pass def fdefault(arg): pass funcmap = { 'x1': fx, 'x2': fx, 'y' : fy, } eventlist = "y x2 x2 x1 y".split() for ev in eventlist: efunc = funcmap.get(ev, fdefault) if efunc(t): # what is t???? # do something -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
