passing the values through parameters in python list function

Question

I'm starting to learn list.append by passing a string to the parameter in the function, However I'm getting an error, how can I solve this issue?

Here's my code:

def add_more(name):
    name.append(5)

name=[1,2,3,4]
print add_more(name)

Typo error missing brace bracket print add_more(name). Should be print(add_more(name)) — user4136999

While the variable name does get altered as a pass by reference, if you're going to print it out, you'll need to add a return statement to your function

def add_more(name):
    name.append(5)
    return name

name=[1,2,3,4] 
print add_more(name)
