I'm developing an application where I want the user to define a list
of modules they want to use and then the application then takes that
list and loads those modules.
As a test, I did this:
------------------------------------
>>> a = ['cgi','Cookie','sys','re']
>>> b = len(a)
>>> for counter in range(b):
... import a[counter]
File "<stdin>", line 2
import a[counter]
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
------------------------------------
Obviously, this doesn't work, and I don't want to use an if-else
statement.
Thanks,
