What is a function in programming?

• A function is a programming block of codes used to perform a single, related, specific task.

• A function is a type of variable that stores data.

• A function is a method to create user interfaces in applications.

• A function is a way to define a class in object-oriented programming.

What are positional arguments?

• Arguments that must match the number and order of parameters defined in the function.

• Arguments that can be provided in any order.

• Arguments that are optional and can be omitted.

• Arguments that are defined outside the function.

What is the calling function?

• The function that calls another function.

• A function that returns a value.

• A function that is called by another function.

• A function that performs a specific task.

What is a function that does not take any arguments and does not return a value?

• A function that performs an action but does not return any data.

• A function that takes inputs and returns a value.

• A function that can only be called once.

• A function that is used for mathematical calculations.

What are the types of user-defined functions?

• No Argument No return

• With Argument No return

• No Argument with return

• With Argument with return

What are built-in functions in Python?

• Functions that are defined by the user.

• Functions whose functionality is predefined in Python, such as len(), type(), int(), input().

• Functions that can only be used in Python 3.

• Functions that require external libraries to operate.

What is a function header?

• The header specifies the name of the function and the names of its parameters.

• The header defines the return type of the function only.

• The header includes the function's documentation comments.

• The header is used to call the function in the program.

What is indentation in Python functions?

• The blank space needed for the Python statements, usually four spaces.

• The use of semicolons to end statements in Python.

• The requirement to write all code in a single line.

• The practice of commenting out code for clarity.

What is a function that takes arguments and returns a value?

• A function that performs an action using the provided arguments and returns a result.

• A function that only takes arguments but does not return a value.

• A function that is used to store data temporarily.

• A function that can only be called once.

What are parameters in a function?

• Parameters are data passed into a function.

• Parameters are the functions themselves.

• Parameters are the return values of a function.

• Parameters are the variables declared inside a function.
