Functions in Python - Keyword Arguments

Here’s another video in the Functions in Python series. If you haven’t watched the previous parts yet, feel free to do so. These are:
1) Introduction to Functions
2) Functions with Parameters
3) The return Statement
4) Mandatory Parameters
5) Optional Parameters
6) Mutable Optional Parameters

Today we’ll be talking about keyword arguments.

All the parameters that we’ve been using so far, both mandatory and optional, are the so-called positional parameters. This is because when we call a function, the arguments must be passed to it in the same order (at the same positions) as in the parameter list. But there is a way around it. We can use arguments in any order, provided we pass them along with the parameter names. These are the so-called keyword arguments.
