Def tells the interpreter that you are making a function. A function is a block of code that you can reuse Syntax is as follows def [function name]([parameters]): [Indented block of code] For example def Add(num1, num2): return num1 + num2 The functions can be as complicated as neccecary.

def is used as a keyword to tell the program that we are defining a function. def func_name(): Means that we are declaring a function named func_name, with no parameters. And the next code block will belong to the function. def func_name(): print("This statement belongs to func_name") print("This statement also belongs to func_name") print("This statement does not belong to func_name")
