WOULD YOU SAY PYTHON RETURN FUCTION IS SIMILOAR TO THE POP() FUNCTION ?

Question

Pop function and Return function would you say they have similarities. They both can return a value and you can store the value in a variable?

Keyword: SIMILARTIES ! both can return a value only difference pop() can remove the value!!

Python community do you agree with me??

Answer 1

Oral Napier ,

first of all, return is not a function. it is a python keyword that can be used to give back (return) values to the caller. return can only be used from inside named functions. this can be a user defined function or a python builtin function or a function from libraries (modules).
however, a function does not necessarily have to return anything.

the list method pop() can be used to remove a desired element from a list, and uses return to provide the removed element to the user.

from this explanations you can see that *return* is NOT similar to the *pop()* method.

Answer 2

Ok thank you I understand now

Answer 3

No, Pop Remove an Item and Return It. Return function only returns the value

Answer 4

I know pop remove and item but pop has a similarly to return function where it can return the value so it has it difference of removing it and also return it.
