This isn't a list of functions but a list of results of function calls. 
If you want the functions in that list then leave off the parentheses,
because those are the "call operator".

In [55]: def a():
   ....:     return 1
   ....:

In [56]: def b():
   ....:     return 2
   ....:

In [57]: funcs = [a, b]

In [58]: funcs
Out[58]: [<function a at 0xb7792e2c>, <function b at 0xb779e1ec>]

In [59]: funcs[0]()
Out[59]: 1

In [60]: funcs[1]()
Out[60]: 2
