What is the problem? It gives me error

Question

def welcome_message():
print("Welcome,"+name)

name=input()
welcome_message()

Answer 1

Ali Ezzeldeen Gadelrab

There should be space after comma (,)

Answer 2

You did not pass the input to the function.

Have a look at this version and compare it to your own:

def welcome_message(name):
print("Welcome,"+name)

name=input()
welcome_message(name)

Answer 3

def welcome_message():
print("Welcome,"+name)

name=input()
welcome_message()

the above code is working fine, even if we have not passed the variable 'name' as argument to the function 'welcome_message()'.
>>> what is the reason of this behaviour?

to make it clear, in python we do not necessarely need to pass a variable to a function.

the variable 'name' is used with the input() function in the main part of the code, before we call the function 'welcome_message(). the only statement in this function is print("Welcome,"+name).
since there is no local variable 'name' defined in the function, the value from the outer scope will be used.

Answer 7

Lisa You dont need to pass the input… But he misses an empty space after the comma

Answer 8

Janne Yes, that's true.
My intention – as it seemed to be a beginner task on functions – was: "Do not mess with global variables unless you know what you are doing."

Answer 9

def welcome_message(name):
print("Welcome,"+name)

name=input()
welcome_message(name)
did not work

Answer 10

I cannot access this task, can you please share the task description?

Your output needs to be formatted exactly as in the task description. That means if there is a blank space in the example, your code needs this blank space, too.
