it's the same thing. when you define the function, it's arguments. example: def add (x, y) when you use the function, you pass parameters. example :print (add (3 + 4))

def add(a, b): return a + b `a` and `b` here are parameters, they are part of function definition. sum = add(20, 22) 20 and 22 here are arguments, they are the value that are passed into the function `add` to work with, when we invoke the function. Anything that are passed in to a function is an argument, it may be number, string, or containers (e.g. list). Hth, cmiiw
