 \frametitle{Summary}
-\label{sec-8}
+\label{sec-12}
+
+ In this tutorial, we have learnt to, 
+
+
+\begin{itemize}
+\item Define functions with default arguments.
+\item Call functions using keyword arguments.
+\item Use the range of functions available in the Python standard library 
+   and the Scientific Computing related packages.
+\end{itemize}
+\end{frame}
+\begin{frame}[fragile]
+\frametitle{Evaluation}
+\label{sec-13}
+
 
-  You should now be able to --
+\begin{enumerate}
+\item All arguments of a function cannot have default values.
+ True or False?
+\vspace{3pt} 
+\item The following is a valid function definition. True or False? 
+\lstset{language=Python}
+\begin{lstlisting}
+def seperator(count=40, char, show=False):
+     if show:
+          print char * count
+     return char * count
+\end{lstlisting}
+\vspace{3pt}
+\item When calling a function,
 \begin{itemize}
-\item define functions with default arguments
-\item call functions using keyword arguments
+\item the arguments should always be in the order in which they are defined.
+\item only keyword arguments can be in any order, but should be called
+     at the beginning.
+\item only keyword arguments can be in any order, but should be called at the end.
 \end{itemize}
+\end{enumerate}

+\item False

+\item False
