Evaluate a string to run a function?

[RufusWhite]

Hi,

is there a way of running a script from a string - so for example at right now, I'm just using if():

Code: Select all

if (x) { pgm1(); }
else if (y) { pgm2(); }
else if (z) { pgm3(); }

whereas I'd prefer to do:

Code: Select all

evaluate('pgm' + currentPgm + '();');

is there a way of doing this?

Many thanks!
