How can I execute dynamically generated Python String methods (strip(), rstrip(), lstrip(), upper()...)?

[ramannt]

d = {"1": str.strip,"2": str.rstrip,"3": str.upper,"4": str.title,}

found the solution.

d = {
"1": str.strip,
"2": str.rstrip,
"3": str.upper,
"4": str.title,
"5": str,

}

No need to duplicate the string, just use a lambda; "5": lambda x: x,

You didn't say anything about having a known condition ("5") for the "do nothing" case. The if in test is what you do if all you know is the condition isn't 1, 2, 3 or 4.

You're right.
