SAIROSHNI



Arguments

  • Information can be passed into functions as "Arguments".
  • Arguments  are specified after the function name ,inside the parenthesis().
Arguments are classified into two types:
  1. Actual argument
  2. Formal arguments
  • Arguments are simply a variable or value inside the parenthesis.
  • More than one argument can be specified inside the parenthesis by separating it with comma.

Actual Arguments

Arguments specified inside the parenthesis in the function call are called actual arguments.

Syntax:

 Function_name(actual arguments)

 Formal Arguments

Arguments specified inside the parenthesis in the function header are called formal arguments.

Syntax:

def function_name(formal arguments)

Program:


  def personalinfo(name,age,hobby): #formal arguments
    print("name:",name)
    print("age:",age)
    print("hobby:",hobby)
 personalinfo('sam',53,'tenis') #actual arguments


Output:


  name: sam
  age: 53
  hobby: tennis
