Understanding Functions and Methods in Python

🚀 Understanding Methods & Functions in Python 🐍 In Python, Functions and Methods are fundamental building blocks that make code modular, reusable, and clean. 🔹 Function: A block of code designed to perform a specific task. Defined using the def keyword. Can be called anywhere once defined. Example: def greet(name): return f"Hello, {name}!" print(greet("Tanmay")) 🔹 Method: A function that is associated with an object. Called on that object using the dot . notation. Example: text = "hello world" print(text.upper()) # upper() is a string method Key Differences: FunctionMethodDefined independentlyBelongs to an objectCan be called directlyCalled using objectdef func()object.method() 💡 Pro Tip: Functions are great for general tasks, while methods are perfect when working with objects like strings, lists, dictionaries, etc. #Python #Coding #Programming #LearningPython #DeveloperTips
