"A function may come with an *explicit* **[return value](https://docs.python.org/3/reference/simple_stmts.html#the-return-statement)** (i.e., \"result\" or \"output\") specified with the `return` statement: Functions that have one are considered **fruitful**; otherwise, they are **void**. Functions of the latter kind are still useful because of their **side effects** (e.g., the [print()](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#print) built-in). Strictly speaking, they also have an *implicit* return value of `None` that is different from the `False` we saw in Chapter 1.\n",

"A function should define a **docstring** that describes what it does in a short subject line, what parameters it expects (i.e., their types), and what it returns (if anything). A docstring is a syntactically valid multi-line string (i.e., type `str`) defined within **triple-double quotes** `\"\"\"`. Strings are covered in depth in Chapter 6. Widely adopted standards as to how to format a docstring are [PEP 257](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0257/) and section 3.8 in [Google's Python Style Guide](https://github.com/google/styleguide/blob/gh-pages/pyguide.md)."
