Question

A program contains the following function definition: def cube(num): return num * num * num Write a statement that passes the value 4 to this function and assigns its return value to the variable result.

Answer 1

Answer:

1. def cube(num):
2.    return num * num * num  
4. result = cube(4)

Explanation:

Given the function cube() as in Line 1 - 2.

To pass the value 4 to this function, we just place 4 inside the parenthesis of the function (Line 4). The value of 4 will be multiplied by itself for two times and the final multiplied result (4 * 4 * 4 = 64) will be returned to variable result.

If we use print() function to display the result, we shall see a value of 64 printed on the terminal.
