def write_a_book(character, setting, special_skill):
print(character + " is in " +
setting + " practicing her " +
special_skill)Sometimes functions require input to provide data for their code. This input is defined using parameters.
Parameters are variables that are defined in the function definition. They are assigned the values which were passed as arguments when the function was called, elsewhere in the code.
For example, the function definition defines parameters for a character, a setting, and a skill, which are used as inputs to write the first sentence of a book.
