question about cycling through a series of functions

[Julia Briggs]

How would I create another function that would cycle sequentially
through each of these? like 1..,2..,3,..4,..1,..etc..

function1() { something }
function2() { something }
function3() { something }
function4() { something }

function5()
{
loop
call the other functions
end loop
}

Using eval():

function fun1() { alert( 'Greetings from function ' + 1); }
function fun2() { alert( 'Hello from function ' + 2); }
function fun3() { alert( 'Hi from function ' + 3); }

function go() {
for( var i=1; i<4; i++ ) {
eval( 'fun' + i + '()' );
}
}
go();

Loop through function go() as often as you like.

Why in the world would you use eval for something this trivial?

Not that its "trivial". But why use it when its not needed?


function go(){
for (var i=1; i<4; i++){
window['fun'+i]()
}
}
