I am trying to call and return a function made up of three other functions, any pointers?
def ForeName():
forename = raw_input("Please enter you're Forename: ")
return forename
def MiddleName():
middle_name = raw_input("Pleaase enter you're Middle name: ")
return middle_name
def SurName():
surname = raw_input("Please eneter you're Surname: ")
return surname
def UserName():
result = UserName()
print "result %s" % (result)
UserName()
Why do you have str parameters in every function? You don't use them, delete them so they don't clutter your code.
After doing that, you can call your methods only if you have () after their names, like this:
result = ForeName(), MiddleName(), SurName()
You should set return value of a UserName(str) to something and then print that.
You probably want this:
result = UserName(str)
print "result %s" % (result)
(Or just UserName() if you delete the str parameter.)
class MyClass and this is usually the type that the class constructor returns.
result = ForeName(), MiddleName(), SurName()There is a lot of boilerplate code. You could write something that accepts the type of name you are looking for from the prompt.
def get_name(name_type):
return raw_input('Please enter your {}name\n'.format(name_type))
def user_name():
result = get_name('fore'), get_name('middle'), get_name('sur')
return ' '.join(result)
print('Result: ' + user_name())
The result would look like this:
Please enter your forename
Darren
Please enter your middlename
Coder
Please enter your surname
Macis
Result: Darren Coder Macis
'Please enter your %sname\n' % name_type
UserName()in the definition ofUserName(), it don't work like that
