Python Coding challenge - Day 3| What is the output of the following Python Code?

 

Code Explanation:

Function Definition:

def multiply(a, b):

    return a * b

A function named multiply is defined.

It takes two arguments, a and b.

It returns the product of a and b using the multiplication operator (*).

Function Call:

result = multiply(3, multiply(2, 4))

The multiply function is called with two arguments:

The first argument is 3.

The second argument is another call to the multiply function: multiply(2, 4).

Nested Call:

The inner function call multiply(2, 4) is executed first.

It computes 2 * 4, which equals 8.

Outer Call:

The result of the inner call (8) is passed as the second argument to the outer call: multiply(3, 8).

It computes 3 * 8, which equals 24.

Print Statement:

print(result)

The value of result, which is 24, is printed to the console.

Output:

The program prints:

24
