from sys import modules __main__ = modules["__main__"] # or call the variable whatever you want assert __main__.__dict__ is globals() # purely for pedagogy func = getattr(__main__, 'func_'+number) Of course, in your particular case, the code can be simplified to avoid getattr() altogether: func = globals()['func_'+number] Cheers, Chris -- http://blog.rebertia.com -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
