Lab-3

Aim: To understand and develop problem solving skills using functions and modules in
Python programming.

Software used: Visual Studio Community 2022.

Theory:-
Function is a sub program which consists of a set of instructions used to perform a specific
task. A large program is divided into basic building blocks called function.

There are two types of functions:-


a) Built-in Function
b) User defined functions

a) Built-in functions:-
These functions are already stored in python.They are always accessible to the programmer
for usage and cannot be modified.
Some of the built-in functions are max(),min(),len(),range(),type(),etc.

Arguments: The variables assigned within the braces of a function are called arguments.

Definition of some built-in function:-


1)max(): The max function will select the maximum of the two arguments of the function.

2)min(): The min function will select the minimum of the two arguments of the function.

3)len(): The length function will specify the number of characters contained in a string.

4)range(): The range function will provide a list of numbers in the range. It’s step size can be
varied.
5)round(): The round off function will round off the number according to the rules of
rounding off.
6)chr(): The character function will type-cast the argument into character data type.

7)float(): The float function will type-cast the argument into the float data type.

8)int(): The int function will type-cast the argument into the int data type.

9)pow(): The power function will raise the second argument to the power of the first
argument.[a^b]

10)type(): The type function will specify the type of the argument.[str, float, int,...]

11)tuple(): The tuple function will convert the list into tuple data type.

12)print(): The print function will display the output on the screen.

13)input(): The input function is used to take data from the user.[values]

b) User defined functions:-


User defined functions are defined by the programmer and contain a set of code as per
the requirement of the programmer.
These functions are used to avoid the repeatability of the code.

Code on User defined functions:-

Conclusion:-
From the above illustrated programs we are able to use and define functions in the
python programming language.We have studied built-in functions as well as user
defined functions in this lab through various programming problems.
