Building a function call?

[Francois De Serres]

Hiho,

Having a string: "dothat"
and a tuple: (x, y)
1. What's the best way to build a function call like: dothat(x,y)?

Assuming dothat is def'd in the same module,
2. is: eval("dothat(x,y)", None, (('x', 100), ('y', 200)))
the right way to have it executed?

If dothat is def'd in another module:
3. what would be the right way to initialize the globals to pass to eval ?


TIA,
Francois
