That is almost the same as using ordinary dict access, with slightly
different syntax, e.g. senso
Well, there are basically two ways to go at it.
If you want it at module level, you need to generate the functions:
sensor = {'sens1': 200, 'sens2': 300}
for key in sensor.keys():
def helper(keytofetch=key):
return sensor[keytofetch]
globals()[key] = helper
print sens1()

I have a dictionary (in a module) which contains values of various

get the sensor values, both as a whole and individually. Currently I
have a function for each value who's sole purpose is to look up the
corresponding dict value an
