Functions – User defined

SEKOLAH PENDIDIKAN,
FAKULTI SAINS SOSIAL DAN KEMUANUSIAAN, UTM 2020
Introduction
 A function is a block of organized, reusable code that is
used to perform a single, related action. Functions provides
better modularity for your application and a high degree of
code reusing.
 As you already know, Python gives you many built-in
functions like print() etc. but you can also create your own
functions.
 These functions are called user-defined functions.
Defining a Function
Here are simple rules to define a function in Python:
 Function blocks begin with the keyword def followed by the
function name and parentheses ( ( ) ).
 Any input parameters or arguments should be placed within
these parentheses. You can also define parameters inside
these parentheses.
 The first statement of a function can be an optional statement
- the documentation string of the function or docstring.
 The code block within every function starts with a colon (:)
and is indented.
 The statement return [expression] exits a function, optionally
passing back an expression to the caller. A return statement
with no arguments is the same as return None.
Defining a Function
 Python keyword cant be used as function name
 Programmer or user can define function by using def
function name
 Then follow by parameter in the parenthesis ()
 Function can be defined with and without arguments
or parameter

 Syntax:
def functionname( parameters ):
function_statements
return [expression]
Defining a Function

def function_name):
statement (must be indent)
call the function

def hello (): # we define the function as hello


print ("Hello, World!") # statement
hello() # we call the function
Calling a Function

 Following is the example to call printme() function:


def printme( str ): #This is a print function
print (str)

printme("I'm first call to user defined function!")


printme("Again second call to the same function")

 This would produce following result:


I'm first call to user defined function!
Again second call to the same function
Function without argument/parameter

def function_name (): - function without argument /


parameter

def UTM_slogan (): # we define the function


print("I am UTM") # state the statement
print("I Love UTM") # state the statement
print("UTM My Home") # state the statement
UTM_slogan () # call the function
Function with argument/parameter

def function_name (parameter1@argument1,


parameter2@argument2):

def kira_purata (x, y): #define function


print("purata ",x," dan ",y, " adalah ",(x+y)/2)
#pass the parameter
kira_purata (100, 12) #call the function

The output will be the average of 100 and 12


Function with passing parameter

Return – use to pass value from parameter to the


function

def nsquare(x, y): # define the function


return (x*x + 2*x*y + y*y) # calculate and return
the value of (x+y)2
print("The square of the sum of 2 and 3 is : ",
nsquare(2, 3)) #call the function
Parameter in Order

def add_numbers(x, y, z): # the process of


defining the
a1 = x + y #state the statement function and
parameter / argu
a2 = x + z ment
a3 = y + z
print(a1, a2, a3)

add_numbers (30, 100, 4) # pass the value into


the parameter Order
x = 30
y = 100
z=4
Call function with Parameter

print (a1, a2, a3)


Instruction to
call the functi
on

add_numbers (30, 100, 4)

pass the value


into the function
(x, y and z)
Parameter using Keyword Argument

By using keyword argument, the parameter can


be called using its name instead of order.

def login_info (userID, katalaluan):


print (“Username: “ + userID)
print (“Password: “ + katalaluan)

login_info (”Alpha”, “deltaecho”)


login_info (katalaluan = “zuluquebec”, userID =
“Beta”)
Parameter using Keyword Argument

By using keyword argument, the parameter can


be called using its name instead of order.

login_info (”Alpha”, “deltaecho”) # call by order


login_info (katalaluan = “zuluquebec”, userID =
“Beta”) # call by name
Using Loop in function

def contoh_loop (): define the


for x in range (0,10): function

print (x)
if x == 9:
We want it
return to stop at 9
print ("This is the last line")

contoh_loop()
Call function
Using if-else in function
def names(): # Define function names()
name = str(input('Enter your name: ‘)) # Set up name variable with
input
# Check whether name has a vowel
if set('aeiou').intersection(name.lower()):
print('Your name contains a vowel.')
else:
print('Your name does not contain a vowel.')
# Iterate over name
for letter in name:
print(letter)

names() # Call the function


The End
