title: What's the way to call a function dynamically in Python?
body: <p>I would like to do something like:</p>
  
  <pre><code>dct = ['do_this', 'do_that']
  dct[0]() // call do_this
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But you can't call the string as a function (will get an error).</p>
  
  <p>How can I achieve this without switching and without using a list of lambdas or functions?</p>
  
  <p>Explicitly I want to refer the function by name.</p>
