Passing arguments

Lesson 7 of 19 in Coddy's Into the Past || Complete Beginner for Python Strings course.

Optional arguments

 

We are now going to look at the optional argument with a python function.  An argument is the ability to pass information into a function.

The technique used is place the argument inside the parentheses and separate them by a common if you have more than one.

Example:

def my_name(name):
    return name

As you can see the argument name is referenced and returned
