Python Coding Challange - Question With Answer(01100425)

 

Line-by-line explanation:

---

prod = getProd(4,5,2)

• This line is trying to call a function named getProd with arguments 4, 5, and 2.

• However, at this point in the code, getProd is not yet defined, so Python will throw an error.

• Error: NameError: name 'getProd' is not defined

---

print(prod)

• This line will not run because the previous line causes an error.

• If the function was properly defined before being called, this line would print the result of 4 * 5 * 2 = 40.

---

def getProd(a, b, c):

• This defines a function named getProd that takes 3 arguments: a, b, and c.

---

return a * b * c

• This returns the product of the three numbers passed to the function.

---

Summary:

• The code tries to use the function before it's defined.

• Python reads code from top to bottom, so it doesn't know what getProd is when it's first called.

• To fix it, you should define the function before calling it.
