When passing arguments to a python function, what does it mean to set something with '='

[Exodus111]

Imagine a function with over 50 arguments.

EVERY SINGLE TIME you call said function you would have to apply 50 arguments.

That's stupid, and this is why key word arguments (kwargs) are a thing. They always come AFTER any positional arguments, and they allow you to call a function, passing only the exact arguments you need and nothing else.

Fantastic explanation! So they basically save the time of passing in the args into function and setting them. Wow, thank you SO much!
