How to make a list of function delegates?

Question

I want to do something like... So where there is a list of function delegates and access the 0 index, invoke it and return the value.

public static bool methodOne()
{
   return true;
}

var methods_list = new List<Func<Delegate>>();
methods_list.Add( () => methodOne() );

// print true
Console.WriteLine(methods_list[0].Invoke());

There's also no need for `DynamicInvoke`; use `Invoke` or invoke it directly with `methods_list[i]()` https://stackoverflow.com/a/12858434/491907 — pinkfloydx33, Nov 12 '17 at 21:12

You need to return a Func<T>, so it returns T:

void Main()
{
    var methods_list = new List<Func<bool>>();
    methods_list.Add(() => methodOne());

    // prints true
    Console.WriteLine(methods_list[0].Invoke());
}

public static bool methodOne()
{
    return true;
}
