1,615 PointsMy code works fine but the work checker still says I have an EOF error and I can't figure out where.
def square(number):
return number * number
number = int(input("What is your number?"))
final_value = square(number)
print(final_value)

230,688 PointsThe challenges test that the code accomplishes the tasks given, using mechanisms that can sometimes produce odd error messages when the code does something unexpected.
For this task, the instructions say "Under the function definition, call your new function and pass it the argument 3", but this code is using input
to get a value instead.
Also, the instructions say: "create a new variable named result to store the value from the function call", but this code is creating a variable named final_value
instead.
Finally, the instructions did not ask for the code to print
anything.
