# The Greeting

> **[INCOMING — Mission Control, Earth]**
>
> Cadet, your first Python. Implement a function called `greet` that
> returns the exact string:
>
> ```
> Hello, Python
> ```
>
> Two pieces of syntax:
>
> - `def name():` defines a function
> - `return value` sends a value back to whoever called it
>
> [END TRANSMISSION]

## Your Task

Open `starter/starter.py`. Replace `pass` with a `return` statement
that returns `"Hello, Python"`.

## Objectives

- A function `greet` exists
- `greet()` returns `"Hello, Python"`
