Hello Monks, I am trying to create a simple script that will step through existing subroutines in a list when a certain condition is met for each. 
$input = <>;

if ($input = 0)
{
    &routine0;
}
elsif ($input = 1)
{
    &routine1;
}
else
{
    exit;
}

That is an example of how it currently reads, but I want something a bit easier to scale, as there will be many subroutines to call. How would I have an array contain subroutines and step forward or backward in that array when a certain condition is met? Thanks in advance.
