function is not defined error in Python

Question

I am trying to define a basic function in python but I always get the following error when I run a simple test program;

>>> pyth_test(1, 2)

Answer 1

It would help if you showed the code you are using for the simple test program. Put directly into the interpreter this seems to work.

>>> def pyth_test (x1, x2):
...     print x1 + x2
... 
>>> pyth_test(1, 2)
3
>>>
