Types of Functions in Python

In Python, there are two main types of functions:

1. Built-in Functions
These are functions already provided by Python. You can use them directly without defining
them.

Examples:
print('Hello') # prints output
len([1, 2, 3]) # gives length
max(10, 20) # gives maximum
type('abc') # gives data type

2. User-defined Functions
These are functions created by the programmer using the 'def' keyword.

Example:
def greet(name):
return f'Hello, {name}!'

print(greet('Alice')) # Output: Hello, Alice!

Memory Tip
Built-in = Ready-made, User-defined = Home-made
