command to run any function

[cheatchki]

So there is probably a SUPER easy way to do this but I want to be able to run a function in a command, this is pretty much so I can do some dev testing with a plugin I have in the works, now I know I could do like

function test(player: player):
    message "example function" to {_player}

command /function <text>:
    if arg-1 is "test":
        test(player)

now what I want differs from the above code in two ways

the first,
I want it so it will allow you to plug in the variable as well so if you were to do /function test(cheatchki) It would run the function like that

and second,
I want it so I don't have to define the function within the command as well so

function test(player: player):
    message "example function" to {_player}

command /function <text>:
    run arg-1 as a proper function?

I'm not certain this is possible. In my testing the blocking point seems to bet the function name itself. I can get it to load properly if I specify the function to be executed, but it doesn't understand the function as a variable the player can choose with the command:

function testFunction(n: number, b: text, p: player):
    send "%{_n}%" to {_p}
    send "%{_b}%" to {_p}

#command would look like /function testFunction 1,banana,Wynnevir              
command /function <text> <text>:
    trigger:
        set {_functionname} to arg 1
        set {_ArgumentGiven} to arg 2
        set {_ArgumentList::*} to {_ArgumentGiven} split at ","
        set {_size} to size of {_ArgumentList::*}
        if {_size} = 3:
#The problem is here with the function name variable. the argument variables
#work but it can't understand a variable where the function name should be
            {_functionname}({_ArgumentList::1}, {_ArgumentList::2}, {_ArgumentList::3})
#Putting it in parenthesis, quotes etc also does not work

This however will load, but defeats the point of your goal

testFunction({_ArgumentList::1}, {_ArgumentList::2}, {_ArgumentList::3})

Perhaps using MundoSK's codeblock expressions may be of use. I personally don't know much about them myself.

function test(p: player, t: text) :: text:
    message "%{_t}%" to {_p}

command /function <text> <player> <text>:
    trigger:
        set {_function} to codeblock of function "%arg 1%"
        run codeblock {_function} with arg 2, arg 3
