Is there a better way of writing menu/submenus?

[PMT_Ives]

local function mem1()
   print("menu 1")
end

local function mem2()
   print("menu 2")
end

-- Is there a better way to write this?
-- I mostly don't wanna use elseif each time I add a string on line 11 (gg.choice({'A', 'B', 'C', 'D'})
local choice = gg.choice({'A', 'B', 'C', 'D'})
if (choice == 1) then
    mem1()
elseif (choice == 2) then
    mem2()
end	

Is there a better way to write this? It's a hassle always changing the number in the "elseif" statement every time I add a string, something to make this automatic would be nice.

local set = {}
set.cheata = function (...)
	print("cheat a successful")
end
set.cheatb = function (...)
	print("cheat b successful")
end
local a = gg.choice({cheata = "cheat a", cheatb = "cheat b"})
if a then
	set[a]()
end

Take a look at the approach shown in this post: 

How to create Menu with values (#2j8mdsbl)

The idea is to have one table with definition of every item in a menu with each item having a name and a function. It is then trivial to construct a table of names and functions from the main table. Table with names is then passed to "gg.choice" or "gg.multiChoice" function and the returned value(s) is used to index functions table to retrieve the function that corresponds to selected feature(s) and finally retrieved function is called.

Can't seem to figure it out, any help?

There is a code in that post, but in case you have difficulties with adapting it, here is a basic template: 

local function f1()
  print("Feature 1")
end

local function f2()
  print("Feature 2")
end

local features = {
  {name = "First feature", func = f1},
  {name = "Second feature", func = f2}
}

local featureNames = {}
local featureFunctions = {}
for i, v in ipairs(features) do
  table.insert(featureNames, v.name)
  table.insert(featureFunctions, v.func)
end

local choice = gg.choice(featureNames)
if choice ~= nil then
  featureFunctions[choice]()
end
