We can pass a Python function as a function argument by treating it like any other object. In Python, functions are first-class objects. This means you can treat them like any other value, assign them to variables, return them from other functions, and even pass them as arguments to other functions. Passing functions as arguments allows you to create flexible and reusable code. This is useful in cases like sorting, filtering, customizing behavior, and implementing callbacks. In this article, we will explore how you can pass a function to another function in Python and how it helps in building higher-order ... Read More

Function overloading means defining multiple functions with the same name but different arguments. This is a built-in feature in many programming languages like C++ or Java. However, in Python, function overloading is not directly supported, but we can achieve it using some techniques. Python uses a concept called dynamic typing, which allows us to define functions that can take different types and numbers of arguments. We cannot create multiple functions with the same name, but we can still achieve similar functionality using methods like default arguments, variable-length arguments, or special modules like functools.singledispatch. Using Default Arguments One way to overload ... Read More

Recursion is a process where a function calls itself repeatedly with new input values, slowly moving toward a condition where it stops. This stopping condition is called the base case. It prevents the function from running endlessly and allows it to return a final result. In Python, we can create recursive functions by simply defining a function that calls itself. Every recursive function has two main components − Recursive Case: This is when the function calls itself to solve a smaller part of the problem. It keeps the process going. Base ... Read More

C++ is a general-purpose, object-oriented programming language, which was developed by Bjarne Stroustrup at Bell Labs in the 1980s. It's an extension of the C language as it includes C features with additional object-oriented concepts like classes, inheritance, polymorphism, encapsulation, and abstraction.Before, it was known as "C with Classes" around 1979, but later renamed as C++ in 1983. These versions of the C++ language are compilers, which are implemented with the following rules made by the ISO C++ community, the community that looks over the development of the language. Here is the following list of C++ versions. ... Read More
