I'm a newbie, I'm trying to write some code that will select and run a function from a list of functions

Typically I'm doing something like this:

Code Select Expand
(define (myfunc) (println "this is myfunc"))
	 
;; define a list of functions
(set 'funclist '(myfunc myfunc myfunc myfunc myfunc))

;; get and run the nth = 2 item of the list
(println "getting func")
(set 'afunc (funclist 2))
(println "calling func ")

(afunc)

Whatever I try I usully get the following error message:

~~Quote~~getting func

calling func

ERR: invalid function : (afunc)

Could anyone explain what I'm, doing wrong?

Thanks.
