Make sure you understand the difference between calling a function and passing around a function as a value. def f(): return 42 a = f b = f() You have understood the difference if you can predict the outcome of all four lines below: print(a) print(b) print(a()) print(b()) Once you think you know the answer try it in the interactive interpreter. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
