Javascript Array of Functions

Without more detail of what you are trying to accomplish, we are kinda guessing. But you might be able to get away with using object notation to do something like this...

var myFuncs = {
  firstFunc: function(string) {
    // do something
  },

  secondFunc: function(string) {
    // do something
  },

  thirdFunc: function(string) {
    // do something
  }
}

and to call one of them...

myFuncs.firstFunc('a string')

I think this is what the original poster meant to accomplish:

var array_of_functions = [
    function() { first_function('a string') },
    function() { second_function('a string') },
    function() { third_function('a string') },
    function() { fourth_function('a string') }
]

for (i = 0; i < array_of_functions.length; i++) {
    array_of_functions[i]();
}

Hopefully this will help others (like me 20 minutes ago :-) looking for any hint about how to call JS functions in an array.

var array_of_functions = [
    first_function,
    second_function,
    third_function,
    forth_function
]

and then when you want to execute a given function in the array:

array_of_functions[0]('a string');

I would complement this thread by posting an easier way to execute various functions within an Array using the shift() Javascript method originally described here

  var a = function(){ console.log("this is function: a") }
  var b = function(){ console.log("this is function: b") }
  var c = function(){ console.log("this is function: c") }

  var foo = [a,b,c];

  while (foo.length){
     foo.shift().call();
  }
