FUNCTIONS IN PYTHON

FUNCTIONS

 Function is a collection of statements which is made to perform a


specific task.
 Instead of writing a large program, we can write small functions as a
specific part of program to accomplish the task.
 To execute function, we have to call it in a program
 Once written, a function can also be used in other programs as library
functions.
Types of Functions

 Built –in functions


 Functions defined in module
 User defined functions
Built in functions

 These are pre-defined functions and are always available for use
 In order to use these functions, there is no need to import any
module
 We can directly use it, in our program.
 Examples: len(), print(), int(), input(), type(), id()
Functions defined in Modules

 These functions are pre-defined in particular modules.


 These can only be used when the corresponding module is imported.
 Examples: math module- sin(), cos(), sqrt(), fabs(), ceil(), floor()
 Statistics module- mean(), median(), mode()
 Random module()- random(), choice(), randint()
User-defined Functions

 These functions are defined by the programmer.


 Functions that we define ourselves to do certain specific task are
referred as user-defined functions.
