Practice Creating and Using Functions in Python, task 3

The code in the using_a_function.py is making use of an external function named tweet.

The code here is intended to make a console based application that sends tweets. I've written the first part for you.

For this first task, can you please just call the tweet function and pass in the message that the user enters?

All this task is asking you to do is call the "tweet()" and pass it the "massage" from the user input.

In order to call (or use) a function you need to write the function name followed by parentheses, you should put your variable inside the parentheses.

tweet(message)

# tweet ---> your function name
# message ---> your variable
