The Recipe

Hoppy is tired of casting the same spells over and over. He wants to bundle them into a single command!

In Python, we use Functions to group code together. You define a function using def.

Defining a Function

def jump():
  print("Bend knees...")
  print("HOP!")

# Call the function (use it)
jump()
jump()

Define

Define a function named greet.

Body

Inside the function, print "Hello, World!". Remember to indent!

Call
