use
apply(func, params)
or
result = apply(func, params)
more info:
>>> help(apply)
Help on built-in function apply in module __builtin__:
apply(...)
apply(object[, args[, kwargs]]) -> value
Call a callable object with positional arguments taken from the tuple
args,
and keyword arguments taken from the optional dictionary kwargs.
Note that classes are callable, as are instances with a __call__()
method.
Deprecated since release 2.3. Instead, use the extended call syntax:
function(*args, **keywords).
