Function Review

• Write a function called practice_function() that takes in a number as a parameter. If the number is less than 50, print the value. If the number is greater than 50 but less than 1000, print a message. If the number is any other value, return the number, then print it. Call the function for three different values: 5, 50, and 200.

• Write a function called describeCity() that accepts the name of a city and its country as parameters. The function should return a simple sentence (for example: "Honolulu is in the USA"). Call your function for three different cities, store them in a list, and print the items in the list separately.

def function(parameter):
    # code goes here

for variable in list:
    # code goes here

list = [item1, item2, ... ]

# to add an item to a list:
list.append(item)
