procedure and function are often used interchangeabily ;P even method and function are not so often distinguished ^^ in python context, as far as I know, we never (or rarely) use the term 'procedure'... you could consider that both are same ;) and that 'hello' is also a / the same function than fib...

the differentiation of function and procedure is a specific issue of the pascal language: ▪︎procedure does not have any return value ▪︎function needs to have a return value in the majority of all programming languages we are talking about functions.
