Required arguments in Python
Required arguments are the arguments passed to a function in correct positional order. Here, the number of arguments in the function call should match exactly with the function definition.
To call the function printme(), you definitely need to pass one argument, otherwise it gives a syntax error as follows −
Example
#!/usr/bin/python # Function definition is here def printme( str ): "This prints a passed string into this function" print str return; # Now you can call printme function printme()
Output
When the above code is executed, it produces the following result −
Traceback (most recent call last): File "test.py", line 11, in <module> printme(); TypeError: printme() takes exactly 1 argument (0 given)
