# Example: Basic function

def greet(name):

return f"Hello, {name}!"

print(greet("Alice")) # Output: Hello, Alice!

# Example: Default argument

def power(base, exponent=2):

return base ** exponent

print(power(3)) # Output: 9

print(power(3, 3)) # Output: 27

# Example: *args for variable-length positional arguments

def add(*args):

return sum(args)

print(add(1, 2, 3)) # Output: 6

# Example: **kwargs for variable-length keyword arguments

def print_details(**kwargs):

for key, value in kwargs.items():

print(f"{key}: {value}")

print_details(name="Alice", age=30)

# Output:

# name: Alice

# age: 30
# Example: Lambda function

square = lambda x: x ** 2

print(square(4)) # Output: 16

# Example: Lambda with map

nums = [1, 2, 3, 4]

squared = list(map(lambda x: x ** 2, nums))

print(squared) # Output: [1, 4, 9, 16]

# Example: Scope

def outer():

x = 10 # Enclosing scope

def inner():

nonlocal x

x += 5

return x

return inner()

print(outer()) # Output: 15

# Example: A simple decorator

def decorator(func):

def wrapper():

print("Before the function call")

func()

print("After the function call")

return wrapper

@decorator

def say_hello():

print("Hello!")
# Example: Higher-order function

def apply_function(func, value):

return func(value)

print(apply_function(lambda x: x * 2, 5)) # Output: 10

def multiply(a, b):

"""Returns the product of two numbers."""

return a * b

print(multiply.__doc__) # Output: Returns the product of two numbers.

def generate_numbers(n):

for i in range(n):

yield i

for num in generate_numbers(3):

print(num)

# Output:

#0

#1

#2

def greet(name: str) -> str:

return f"Hello, {name}!"

print(greet("Alice")) # Output: Hello, Alice!

print(greet.__annotations__) # Output: {'name': <class 'str'>, 'return': <class 'str'>}
