·定义一个函数
For example,
| 1 2 3 | def greet_user():#定义函数 print("Hello!") Now, we just need to input greet_user() and Hello! will be shown on the screen. |
o 向函数传递信息
其实这一点和C语言基本是一致的。这个函数其实就是一个子函数，可以通过括号中的参数向子函数传递信息。
例子：
| 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 | # -*-coding: utf-8 -*- def greet_user(username): print("Hello!" + username.title()) name = input("Please input your name.\n") greet_user(name) |
在这里面，形参就是指子函数def greet_user(username)括号里面的，实参就是最后一行里面的name所代表的。
o 关键字实参
| 1 2 3 4 | def describe_pets(animal_type, pet_name): print("\nI have a " + animal_type + ".") print("My " + animal_type + "'s name is " + pet_name.title() + ".") describe_pets(animal_type = 'cat', pet_name = 'hurry')#关键字实参 |
关键字实参的顺序无关紧要。但是普通的顺序必然非常重要。
o 默认值
| 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 | def describe_pets(pet_name, animal_type = 'dog'):#默认值设置 print("\nI have a " + animal_type + ".") print("My " + animal_type + "'s name is " + pet_name.title() + ".") #typ = input("Please input the type of your pet.\n") #name = input("Please input its name.\n") #describe_pets(typ,name) describe_pets(pet_name = 'hurry')#关键字实参 |
设置了默认值之后，默认值项得在形参括号中的最后。设置默认值之后，如果该参数不再修改，那么这个参数就自动为默认值，但是如果后面对其进行了传递，则使用传递的值而不再是默认值。设置了默认值之后，实参可以少一个（本例中，实参只剩1个）
· 返回值
o 返回简单值。此处返回值与C语言中类似。
o 让实参变成可选。可以利用指定一个默认值，即为空值即可。用到就在后面实参里写上，用不着就直接用默认的空。
o 返回字典。例如，
| 1 2 3 4 5 | def build_person(first_name, last_name): person = {'first': first_name,'last': last_name} return person musician = build_person('jimi', 'hendrix') print(musician) |
· 传递列表
o 在函数中修改列表
For example,
| 1 2 3 4 5 | def print_models(unprinted_designs, completed_models): while unprinted_designs: current_design = unprinted_designs.pop() print("Printing model: " + current_design) completed_models.append(current_design) |
Finally, unprinted_designs will not have any element. But, what if we want to retain these elements? The answer is as followed:
Use slice. function_name(list_name[:]).
For example, when we call function print_models(unprinted_designs, completed_models),we need to change it to print_models(unprinted_designs[:], completed_models).
· Pass lots of actual parameter
o Using *name as a formal parameter, this is just like a list.. For example,
| 1 2 3 | def make_pizza(*toppings): print(toppings) make_pizza('mushrooms', 'green peppers', 'extra cheese') |
o Using **name as a formal parameter, this is just like a dict.
· Import functions(★★★★★)
o Import whole function
For example,
| 1 2 | import pizza #There is a function file called pizza.py pizza.make_pizza(16, 'pepperoni') # We need to point out the function from which file |
o Import specific function
from module_name import function_name
If we use this, we do not need to point out the function from which file.
· Using as to specifying aliases for functions(用as为函数指定别名)/using as to specifying aliases for module（用as为模块指定别名）/import all functions from module.
| 1 2 3 | from pizza import make_pizza as mp import pizza as p from pizza import * |
