When I run this, regardless of which option I select all three functions are
called. Is there a way I can do this where only the option selcted is called?
Im using 2.3.3 if that matters any. Thanks.

def spam():
print 'Hello world'
def breakfast():
print 'Spam, Spam, Chips, and Spam'
def bridgekeeper():
print 'Ask me your questions, Bridgekeeper. I am not afraid.'
select = raw_input('Chose an option [1|2|3]: ')
options = ['1', '2', '3']
command = {'1': spam(),
'2': breakfast(),
'3': bridgekeeper()
}
if select in options:
command[select]
else:
print 'Selection not recognized.'
