Question

Consider the following program:
def squareArea(sideLength) :
   return sideLength ** 2
a = squareArea(5)
What is(are) the argument(s) in this program?

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The question asks about the argument(s) in this program.
First, observe the function definition: def squareArea(sideLength): return sideLength ** 2. This function has a single parameter named sideLength, which is the value that will be used inside the function when it is called.
Next, look at the function call: a = squareArea(5). Here, the value 5 is passed to the function squareArea as an argument. During the call, sideLength inside the function will be bound to 5, so the expression sideLength ** 2 evaluates to 5 ** 2, which is 25, and that value is assigned to a.
Since this is a short snippet, there could be other potential arguments if the function were called again with different values, but in this program as shown, the argument provided in the call squareArea(5) is the single argument 5.
Note that the provided answer list is empty in the prompt, so there are no explicit choices to evaluate. However, based on the code given, the argument being passed to the function squareArea is the literal 5, and the parameter receiving it is sideLength.
