Question

please, can one help me to know what return do and meaning in python?
< I searched very much and did not understand well >

Answer 1

When you write a piece of code which will generate a result, that you may wish to integrate later into another piece of code, then *return* is ideal.

Answer 2

Return statement makes a function call to terminate and to evaluate a value,

which value is evaluated is specified by the argument of the return statement.

When you use operations, program solves them 1 operation at time:

(((5 + 9)*4) - 6)
-> ((14*4) - 6)
-> (56 - 6)
-> 50

Operations use values (operands) to generate new values,

functions work very similarly, functions use values (arguments) to generate new values.

Answer 3

I have a little snippet which may help you understand a bit better

def example(x):
return x**2 +1

print(example(2))
print(example(3))
print(example(2)* example(3))
