huh?
primal flower
It's saying subset is not a parameter of the duplicated function
deft spire
and what does that mean?
primal flower
Do you know what a function is?
deft spire
A block of code where we put one or more inputs and get specific results tied to the variables/inputs we put in?
primal flower
Do you know what a parameter is?
deft spire
Do you know what a parameter is?
nope
primal flower
Parameters are the "inputs" of the function
deft spire
ok
primal flower
They are what the function expects to be able to run properly
primal flower
!e
```py
def foo(x):
pass
foo(y=10)
```
In my example here, function foo expects a parameter named x
but I gave it something called y when I called it
That's the same as your scenario
the duplicate() function doesn't have a parameter named subset, but you tried to give it one
Where did this code come from?
deft spire
this code is mine and i am trying things, as about where i learn it from a youtube tutorial
primal flower
I'd really recommend learning the basics of python before diving into what looks quite advanced
deft spire
maybe but i am confused because before it worked fine
as for parameters and functions i don't know the exact words in since i learned what i learned in a different language
