    Murad Isayev
    This document discusses exercises related to writing and using subprograms (functions) in Python. It includes exercises to: 1) analyze the anatomy of a subprogram including signatures, docstrings, specifications, and statements; 2) understand parameter scoping and behavior of return statements; 3) write a function to calculate nth power using only sum and multiplication; and 4) write functions to find perfect numbers and friendly number pairs within a given range.

    PW 3: Sub-program (functions)
    Goal

    ● Understand the different elements constituting a sub-program.


    ● Know how to test a sub-program.
    ● Understand the parameters and local variables.
    ● Know how to write a sub-program.

    Exercice 1: Anatomy of a sub-program

    ● Considering the following code, explain what it is:


    ○ Signature
    ○ the documentation chain or "docstring"
    ○ specification
    ○ statements
    ● Implantation. The following questions relate to the implementation (the code) of the various
    functions of the listing
    ○ Indicate the behavior of the return statement?
    ○ What is the return value of a subroutine that does not contain a return?
    ○ Explain the behavior of the assert statement
    ○ Explain and compare the following two calls:
    ■ minimum(1, 2)
    ■ minimum(elt2=-3, elt1=-5)
    ○ Explain the meaning of
    ■ if __name__ == '__main__':
    ● Run the program

    Exercice 2:

    Using the following program:

    ● Can we use the same parameter name for sp1 and sp2?
    ● When does the ‘a’ parameter of sp1 exist?
    ● How to understand the expression sp1 (a = a) in main?
    ● What is the output of this program?
    ● Run the program with http://www.pythontutor.com

    Exercice 3:

    Write a program that calculates the nth power of a number using only sum and multiplication

    ● don’t use **
    ● n and the number itself is given by the user.
    ● Don’t forget to write a function that contains asserts to verify your code.
    ● "Docstring" is obligatory

    Exercice 4:

    A natural number is said to be perfect if it is equal to the sum of its divisors, excluding it. For example,
    28 is a perfect number (28 = 1 + 2 + 4 + 7 + 14).

    Two numbers N and M are said to be friends if the sum of the divisors of M (excluding M itself) is
    equal to N and the sum of the divisors of N (excluding N itself) is equal to M. For example, 220 and
    284 are friends. Indeed, the sum of the divisors of 220 out of 220 is

    1 + 2 + 4 + 5 + 10 + 11 + 20 + 22 + 44 + 55 + 110 = 284 and the sum of the divisors of 284 excluding


    284 is 1 + 2 + 4 + 71 + 142 = 220.

    Our goal is to write two subprograms. The first displays in ascending order and progressively the
    perfect numbers from 2 to a given natural number. The second displays all the friendly numbers (N,
    M) between 2 and a given natural number MAX such as 0 <N ≤ M ≤ MAX.

    Before coding in Python, write the algorithm of the problem using the refining method.

    Once done, you can write your code. DON’T FORGET THE “Docstring”
