Dear Sunil,

No method or function in Python has a *static* return type. That's
because Python is by nature a dynamic language, with duck typing and
dynamic dispatch. In fact, any method or function may well return any
of a number of different types:

    def crazy_function(return_int)
        if return_int:
            return 1
        else:
            return 'foo'

It's probably bad design, but there is nothing in the Python grammar
and semantics that stops you from doing that.

So your question is better phrased as: if I don't explicitly return
anything, what is returned?

The answer to that would be: the None object

Cheers,
Kal
