Try this:

------
def a():
        print "this is a"

def b():
        print "this is b"

lst = [a(), b()]
------

To create the list, the terms inside the list have to be evaluated.
That causes a and b to execute, and the function calls are replaced by
the each function's return value.  Since your functions don't have a
return statement, the value None is returned.  To see that, add this
line:

print lst
