Python Functions - def() Function !!

Python Functions - def() Function !!


Python Function


Python functions are building blocks of programming code which we can use when we want to call required content.

We write some code in particular function and call function in program any where when required.

We can write name of function as per our choice.

With function name we use def keyword.

We can use return, print(), range() and other functions in python functions.

def() 


def() function is used to create function in python which we can use when required.

Syntax : def function_name() :
                     code of function

Declare :  function_name()

Example :





Output :

def called

As shown in above example we create function as func.

In func() function we write one code line for print def called.

When we want to call a function then we only have to write function name like here we write func().

It called the function,execute the block and print the statement.

Function With Argument 


We can use function with argument.we can declare argument of function at a time of function declaration.

Function with argument is used to give value at a run-time.

Syntax : function_name(argument) :
                       code of function

For execution : function_name(value)

Program :






Output :

hi khush

Here, we use function name func() with argument (name).

when we have to execute func('khush') then khush value used as a argument of name and print the output.

Example 2 :

We can use integer value as a argument for different operations or for other use.

Program :






Output :

a is 10

Here, we pass the integer value 10 in the function and it is stored in argument a of value() function.

Get Input From User :


We can get data from user and store in a variable.

That variable is used as a argument of the function.

let's see an example:

Program :






Output : 

enter name : khush
name is : khush

as see in above program we get input from user and that value khush store in variable s.

this argument name is take value of variable s.

Return Method In Function :


We use return method in function. 

when the function is called then it calls the function and program stop when return is called.

we can use above all method by get output with return.

Program :


Output :

enter name : khush
hi khush

as same above method we get data from user and store print method in variable msg.

after that we return the variable msg and get output.

Things You Should Know About Python Before Learning Python :


Python is an interpreted, high-level, general-purpose programming language. Developed by Guido van Rossum and first released in 1991,

Basic Programs Of All Python Methods


1) Program :


Python program to print Hello World.

# This prints Hello World on the output screen
print('NibKarma')

Output :


Hello NibKarma

List Programs

2) Program :



def string_length(str):
    count = 0
    for char in str:
        count += 1
    return count
print(string_length('NibKarma'))


Output : 8

Python Dictionary

3) Program :


def char_frequency(str):
    dict = {}
    for n in str:
        keys = dict.keys()
        if n in keys:
            dict[n] += 1
        else:
            dict[n] = 1
    return dict
print(char_frequency('NibKarma'))

Output :


{'a': 2, 'N': 1, 'i': 1, 'K': 1, 'r': 1, 'm': 1}

Python Tuple 

4) Program :

tuple=('a','b','c','d','e')
print(tuple)
del tuple[1]

5) Program :



a = "Hello world"
print(a)
print(a[0])
print(a[1])
print(a[2])
