using variables from function

Question

def yet(yut):
yut="yaaah"
return yut
print(yut)uuu

This code output is NameError: yut is not defined is there any way I can use variable yut outside function yet?

Answer 1

Still a newb but can’t you just declare it as a global variable?

Answer 2

Ben Bryant I've never heard those I'll look it up thanks

Answer 3

No prob. I think you just use the work ‘global’ before it. But they’re frowned upon for reasons I don’t yet understand 👍🏻

Answer 4

you can have def yet():
and print(yet)

Answer 5

Yes of course! Use the yet function as an output. This made my life a lot easier when trying to write a function that rolled a dice because I couldn’t get the dice roll out of the function and into the main code. Now I just assign the result of the func to a variable and call the variable

Answer 6

I'll experiment with these suggestions thanks
