PowerShell is a go-to scripting language for almost ANYTHING! Now, if you’re hoping to learn Python, then you’re in the right place. As you start this course, you’ll begin to notice that there are a lot of patterns and concepts shared between the two languages. 

Thus during this course, you will easily be able to relate new Python concepts to the concepts you already know in PowerShell, a learning style called Associative Learning. 

This PowerShell Scripting guide to Python is designed to make you familiar with syntax, semantics, and core concepts of the Python language. And by using concepts you already know in PowerShell, you’ll be able to learn Python fast and effectively in a way that sticks with you for a longer period of time.

Learning Python through PowerShell Concepts

# Solution 
Let’s understand the solution of the challenge in Powershell and Python.
# Python

def square(num):
    return num*num
result = square(5)
print(result)


# Explanation
- In **line 1,** we have defined the `square` function using the `def` keyword. And you have defined the single argument `num`, as the function that will take a single number as an argument.
- In **line 2,** we have returned the square of the number by multiplying the number with itself.
- In **line 3,** we have stored their return value in the `result` variable and in **line 4** we have printed the `result`.
