Question

what do I do to prompt for an input by the user with the following function?

Can I use user = input("please enter number") in this function.

def Func(x):
    total = 0
    for i in range(x):
        total += i * (i-1)
    return total

so adding it to the function would be like

def Func(x):
    user = input("please enter number: ")
    x=user
    total = 0
    for i in range(x):
        total += i * (i-1)
    return total

Answer 1

Once you define the function, you can subsequently invoke it:

Func(5)
