I need something like this, is this possible to do?

void Main()
{
    var input = Console.ReadLine();
    Task.Run(() => input );
}

start a task by it's name(string input from user)

if i typed in "hello", in that example, what would you expect to happen

ok, that's a method called ping, not a task

```cs
var dictionary = new Dictionary<string, Func<Task>>()
{
  { "ping", () => ping() },
  { "blah", () => otherMethod() },
};

var userInput = Console.ReadLine();

if (dictionary.TryGetValue(userInput, out var action))
{
  var task = action.Invoke();
  await task;
}
else
{
  Console.WriteLine("no method found");
}
```
