Something that's been left untouched about functions is how to specify keyword arguments!
To specify a keyword argument, all you have to do is specify your keyword in the parentheses after the name of the function you're declaring, and then give it a default value to take if it's not otherwise specified when your function's called.
e.g. with these quotes, I was mildly upset there were no famous cat quotes! Like the infamous "Meow"! So, I added a cheat to get a meow whenever I want ;p
from random import choice
def Quotes(Classic_Quote, cheat=False):
if not cheat:
return {"a":"Luke I am your Father !!!",
"b":"When nine hundred years old you reach, look as good you will not",
"c":"Truly wonderful, the mind of a child is.",
"d":"That is why you fail.",
"e":"A Jedi uses the Force for knowledge and defense, never for attack.",
"f":"Adventure. Excitement. A Jedi craves not these things.",
"g":"Judge me by my size, do you?",
"h":"Fear is the path to the dark side…fear leads to anger…anger leads to hate…hate leads to suffering",
"i":"Wars not make one great.",
"j":"Luminous beings are we…not this crude matter.",
"e":"Do. Or do not. There is no try.",
"e":"Never tell me the odds!"}.get(Classic_Quote)
else:
return "MEOW!"
ran = choice('abcdefghijkl')
txt = Quotes(ran, cheat=True)
print(txt)
I can call this function without issues omitting the keyword argument as it's optional (it'll just take its default value), like this...
txt = Quotes(ran)
print(txt)
and I can also omit the keyword (this also works for multiple keyword arguments, assuming you know the order they're in at the function's declaration).
txt = Quotes(ran, True)
print(txt)
