Python Default Arguments

# Introduction Envision the sands of ancient Egypt, the pyramids towering overhead, casting long shadows over a landscape steeped in mystique and history. In this lab, we venture inside a newly-unearthed chamber within the great Pyramid of Khufu. Hieroglyphics on the chamber walls tell of a lost deity whose powers would be restored once their avatar is summoned with the correct incantation. It is said this god had the power to grant wisdom and knowledge, particularly in the arcane art of Python programming. Our goal is to decode the incantation needed to summon this deityโ€™s avatar by solving Python puzzles laid out in the chamber. To do this, we must master the use of default arguments in Python functionsโ€”a concept as timeless as the pyramids themselves.
