You can pass a function-name as parameter
def main():
outcome = function1('function2',par2)
function(par2 = <value>, par1 = <value>)
return
def function1 (functiontocall, inpar2 = <defaultvalue>):
result = functiontocall(inpar2)
return result
def function2 (inpar1, inpar2 = <defaultvalue>):
codeblock
return result
main()
Build in function
List of all build in functions [1]
- len(obj1)
- Return the number of elements in obj1 (string, list, tuple, set)
- max(obj1)
- Return the largest item in obj1
- min(obj1)
Return the smallest item in obj1
- input([prompt])
- Read and return input from standard input. Display 'prompt' first when provided.
- int(string[,base=x)])
- Convert str to an integer. Base = 2 converts bit-string presentation ('010101').
- str(object)
- repr(object)
- Return a string representation of an object. str for the informal representation (just make it printable), repr for the formal representation (more formating??)
Self defined functions
Arguments are positional but can be passed by keyword too.
def main():
outcome = function(par1,par2)
function(par2 = <value>, par1 = <value>)
return
def function (inpar1, inpar2 = <defaultvalue>):
codeblock
return result
main()
