Arguments

1. Positional arguments... must supply a value for each argument. The number, data type, and order of positional arguments in a function call must match those in the function definition
   
2. Keyword arguments... have default values. If a caller does not specify a value for a keyword argument, the function uses the default value
   
3. Rest arguments... allows functions to accept an unlimited number of arguments. A rest argument is not individually named in the function definition. Instead, three periods (...) at the end of the list of arguments indicate that a function accepts rest arguments.
