How to dynamically call methods within a class using method-name assignment to a variable [duplicate]

Solution 1:

def get(self):
      def func_not_found(): # just in case we dont have the function
         print 'No Function '+self.i+' Found!'
      func_name = 'function' + self.i
      func = getattr(self,func_name,func_not_found) 
      func() # <-- this should work!

Solution 2:

Two things:

1. In line 8 use,

   func_name = 'function' + str(self.i)

2. Define a string to function mapping as,

     self.func_options = {'function1': self.function1,
                          'function2': self.function2
                          }
   

3. So it should look as:

   class MyClass:

   def __init__(self, i):
         self.i = i
         self.func_options = {'function1': self.function1,
                              'function2': self.function2
                              }
   def get(self):
         func_name = 'function' + str(self.i)
         func = self.func_options[func_name]
         func() # <-- this does NOT work.
   
   def function1(self):
         //do something
   
   def function2(self):
         //do something
