Study Notes

Function Names in Python

A legal function name in Python is a valid identifier that starts with a letter or an underscore, followed by zero or more letters, underscores, or digits.
Python is case-sensitive, meaning that uppercase and lowercase letters are treated as distinct characters in function names.

The 'pass' Keyword

The 'pass' keyword is used as a placeholder when a function or a control structure requires a statement, but no action is required.

Function Parameters

Function parameters in Python can be of any data type, not just limited to one type.
There is no restriction on the data type of function parameters; they can be of different types.

Indentation

In Python, the body of a function is indented by 4 spaces to define the function's block of code.

Restrictions on Function Names

Python reserves some special words that cannot be used as function names.
Function names in Python cannot contain spaces, newlines, or punctuation.
