in reply to calling subroutines from variables

Just a thought, though probably not the most secure...
#!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; my @list_o_subs = ('one','two','three','one','two','one','three','two' +); { no strict 'refs'; for(@list_o_subs){ &{$_}; } } sub one { print "called sub 'one'\n"; } sub two { print "called sub 'two'\n"; } sub three { print "called sub 'three'\n"; }
Outputs
called sub 'one' called sub 'two' called sub 'three' called sub 'one' called sub 'two' called sub 'one' called sub 'three' called sub 'two'

Update!
I really should read more thoroughly before I post... This is basically what Bloodnok suggested.
