Hint:

Default arguments take the default value during the function call if we do not pass them. We can assign a default value to an argument in function definition using the = assignment operator.

Solution:

# function with default argument
def show_employee(name, salary=9000):
    print("Name:", name, "salary:", salary)

show_employee("Ben", 12000)
show_employee("Jessa")
