Question

You are given the partial code for a function, with only the body completed. You must

1. Write a complete function header, including a meaningful name (to indicate your understanding of the code),
2. Include type annotations
3. Use proper indentation.

#FUNCTION HEADER (2 points)

#DOCSTRING (3 points)

#FUNCTION BODY - Do not change the code. You may copy-paste it into the answer-box but it is your choice. No marks for doing so)

return x*x

Answer 1

1. The function header is the part of function which specifies the arguments it take and the name of function.
2. Function docstring is a block of comments which summarizes the working of the function along with description of parameters and returning value.

def square(x): 
        """ 
        Returns the square of number you input.

        Parameters: 
            x (numeric): The number whose square is to be calculated.

        Returns: 
            numeric: The square of the given number.

        """

        return x*x

The given function returns square of the value, hence it was named square.
