So as said before, functions are pretty useful, but what if we need one that does not come prepackaged? or even better, what if we want\u00a0<\/em>to create one our own, its fairly simple.<\/p>\n

The first thing we need to do to start wrtting a function is define it, using “def” a space and the name you want to assign to your function. You want to be careful how you name your function, so it doesnt get mixed up with other values,<\/p>\n

Next you should write the parameters for your function between parentheses so like this:<\/p>\n

def function1 (parameter):<\/p>\n

here you would write what you want your function should do<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

 <\/p>\n

Here is an actual function to calculate the volume of a figure<\/p>\n

\"function-atom\"<\/p>\n

Which would give back:<\/p>\n

\"function-cyg\"<\/p>\n

That’s as easy as it is, enjoy!<\/p>
