Example

Here’s another way to interact with Python and pass input to a function.

The input() function takes input from the user - you give that input to the function by typing it.

>>> def hello_there():

print("Type your name:")

name = input()
print("Hi", name, "how are you?")

Now what happens when you call this function?

>>> hello_there()

Type your name:

Barbara
Hi Barbara how are you?
