proper way to write a function in p code example

Example 1: python functions

# first we have to write 'def'
# then our function name followed by ()
# and a ':' abd defining  block of code

def multiply():     # naming convention could be same as variable for functions
    product = 10.5 * 4
    return product


product = multiply()
print(product)

Example 2: what does * mean in python in functions

>>> numbers = [2, 1, 3, 4, 7]
>>> more_numbers = [*numbers, 11, 18]
>>> print(*more_numbers, sep=', ')
2, 1, 3, 4, 7, 11, 18
