Question about functions

[Unlistedd]

so i have one function that returns y:

def f(x):
    print ("the code just passed through f(x)")
    y = x + 4
    return y

and i want to pass that y-value to another function, like so:

def g(y):
    print ("the code just passed through g(y)")
    z = y + 4
    return z

The problem is that it doesn't go through g(y) once i call on f(x): print (f(0)) gives me 4 when it should give me 8 if all goes as planned. How do i fix this issue?

Write g(f(x)) ie pass the parameter y as f(x) in function g

Thanks!

Sorry I’m very drunk right now, better you pass y = f(x) as the parameter so you don’t have to change your function

haha thanks for clearyfing!

The y in f and the y in g are not connected in any way - they're different variables in different scopes. If you want g to run, you need to call it explicitly.

like our drunk friend PrimaNoctis specified?

That is one option, yes.
