The video tutorial explains the use of default parameters in Python functions, highlighting how they can be assigned in the function declaration. It emphasizes the importance of maintaining the correct order of positional arguments and how keyword arguments can be used to avoid errors by allowing arguments to be passed in any order. The tutorial also warns against mixing keyword and positional arguments incorrectly, which can lead to syntax errors. It concludes by demonstrating the correct usage of both argument types to ensure error-free code execution.

What is the primary purpose of assigning default values to parameters in a function declaration?

• To ensure the function always returns a value

• To allow the function to be called without specifying all arguments

• To make the function run faster

• To prevent syntax errors in the code

Why is it important to maintain the order of positional arguments in a function call?

• To ensure the function runs faster

• To prevent logical errors in the function

• To allow the use of keyword arguments

• To make the code more readable

How do keyword arguments enhance the flexibility of function calls?

• By preventing the use of default values

• By ensuring all arguments are mandatory

• By making the function run faster

• By allowing arguments to be passed in any order

What happens if you use a keyword argument before a positional argument in a function call?

• The function will use default values for all arguments

• A syntax error will occur

• The function will ignore the keyword argument

• The function will execute normally

Which of the following is a correct way to mix positional and keyword arguments?

• Using a positional argument first, then a keyword argument

• Using only keyword arguments

• Using only positional arguments

• Using a keyword argument first, then a positional argument
