How do I put functions in a list in Python?

Question

I would like to use a switch statement in Python, but since there is not a switch statement in python, I would like to use a list of functions. However, when I define the list, the functions are executed.

Here is my code:

shapes = [drawSquare(), drawRectangle(), myTurtle.circle(10), drawTriangle(), drawStar()]

Here is the output using turtle:

How do I define the list of functions without python running the functions?

Answer 1

Remove the brackets ()

Ex:

shapes = [drawSquare, drawRectangle, myTurtle.circle, drawTriangle, drawStar]

Demo:

def add(a,b):
    return a + b

def sub(a,b):
    return a - b

lst = [add, sub]
for i in lst:
    print(i(3,2))
