Python void function

Python void function is not the same as functions you see in C, C++, or Java. If the Python function does not have any return statement then a special value None returns.

Note: void is not a keyword in Python or a type for functions\methods that return nothing.

Python void function

A simple example code shows that void functions return None.

def foo():
    pass


def goo():
    return None


# Now try the following
print(foo())
print(goo())

Output:

Function foo() returns void,(simplicity returns None as what goo() returns explicitly).
