Using an example show how a function in Python can return multiple values.

Q. Using an example show how a function in Python can return multiple values.

Answer:-

(a) Either receive the returned values in form a tuple variable.

For example: -

def squared(x, y, z):
    return x, y *y, z * z
t = squared (2,3,4)
print(t)

Tuple t will be printed as:
(4, 9, 16)

(b) Or you can directly unpack the received values of tuple by specifying the same number of variables on the left-hand side of the assignment in function call.

For example: -

def squared(x, y, z):
    return x* x, y * y, z * z
v1, v2, v3 = squared (2, 3, 4)
print("The returned values are as under:")
print (v1, v2, v3)

Output is:-
4 9 16
