code for this question please

Great now that you have created your new square method, let's put it to use.

Under the function definition, call your new function and pass it the argument 3.

Since your square function returns a value, create a new variable named result to store the value from the function call.

Hi Raviteja,

What part of this challenge is giving you trouble? Do you not understand the instructions?

I don’t mind offering you a solution, but it’d be helpful to me to know what solutions you’ve tried thinking up on your own so far.

Hi Raviteja!

This should work:

def square(number):
    return number * number

result = square(3)
print(result) # not part of the instructions as you stated them

Would print:

9

I hope that helps.

Stay safe and happy coding!
