The following statement calls a function named half, which returns a value that is half that of the argument. (assume the number variable references a float value.) write code for the function.

The function definition to this question can be given as:

def half (number): #defining a function half and pass a variable number in function parameter

   return number/2 #returns value.

data=half(12)  #defining variable data that holds function return value

print(data) #print value.

Output:

6.0

Explanation:

In the above python program, a function that is half is declare that includes a variable number in the function parameter. Inside the function, the parameter value that is number is divided by 2 and returns its value. In calling time a data variable is defined that holds the function half() value.

In calling time function holds value that is "12" in its parameter and return a value that is "6.0".
