Using the IDLE development environment, create a Python script named tryme3.py . Write a function in this file called nine_lines that uses a function called three_lines to print nine blank lines. Now add a function named clear_screen that prints out twenty-five blank lines. The last line of your program should call the function to clear_screen .

 

The function three_lines and new_line are defined below so that you can see a nested function call.

 

def new_line():

  print()

 

def three_lines():

  new_line()

  new_line()

  new_line()

 

Submit your Python script file in the posting of your assignment. Your Python script should be either a .txt file or a .py file. You must execute your script and copy and paste the output produced into a document that you will submit along with your python script. It is very helpful if you print a placeholder between the printing of 9 lines and the printing of 25 lines. It will make your output easier to read for the assessor. A placeholder can be a comment such as ânow printing 9 linesâ or ânow printing 25 linesâ.

 

You can submit the document as a Word 2003, or OpenOffice document. Open Office documents should be saved using with Word format and NOT the default format used by OpenOffice writer. (the file extension will be .doc.)

 

Donât forget to use comments in your script file to make the script more readable.
