OK, first, almost a joke (unless you really need what you say):
     f = [j.__add__ for j in range(n)]

And now the one various others are missing:

     def add(x, y):
         '''replace with the function you actually want'''
         return x + y

     f = [functools.partial(add, n) for n in range(0)]
