Assertion (A): To use positional arguments, the arguments need to be passed in the same order as their respective parameters in the function definition.
Reasoning (R): If three positional arguments are to be passed to the function, the first argument will be assigned to the first parameter, second argument to the second parameter and the third argument to the third parameter.
- Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
- Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
- A is true but R is false.
- A is false but R is true.

Answer
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
Explanation
Positional arguments in Python must be passed in the same order as their respective parameters in the function definition. This means that the first argument passed will be assigned to the first parameter, the second argument to the second parameter, and so on. As positional arguments are those arguments in a function call that match the number and order of arguments as defined in the function definition.

Assertion (A): The local and global variables declared with the same name in the function are treated in the same manner by the Python interpreter.
Reasoning (R): The variable declared within the function block is treated as local, whereas the variable declared outside the function block will be referred to as a global variable.

Assertion (A): The functions developed and defined by language programmers and provided within the framework of the language are termed as built-in functions.
Reasoning (R): Each and every built-in function contains a set of statements to perform a specific task. They are independent entities and, hence, not included within any module or object.
