You need to use the __getitem__ method.
class MyClass:
def __getitem__(self, key):
return key * 2
myobj = MyClass()
myobj[3] #Output: 6
And if you're going to be setting values you'll need to implement the __setitem__ method too, otherwise this will happen:
>>> myobj[5] = 1
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: MyClass instance has no attribute '__setitem__'
