def hello_student(name):
return "Hello " + name
The first line defines the function hello_student
and we are giving it one parameter, which is name
. A parameter is what we call anything we are saying a function should be passed.
Next we are returning the string "Hello {name}" which is what the challenge wants to see returned, we are just concatenating the strings (adding strings together to make a different string).
The next part of the challenge wants you to create a variable, and then call the function and pass in your name, remember you have to pass it in as a string which means you'll need "" around it. You got this!
