Done through Block Py/ Python Create a function named rate_animal that will rate the value of animals on a numeric scale (1-4, where 1 is best and 4 is worst). Your function should consume a variable (holding a string value) named an_animal and return an integer from 1-4 for each of four possible inputs: "dog", "cat", "capybara", and "danger noodle". Each animal should have its own value. If the string given is not a valid animal from the list, return -1. Call and print the function once with your favorite animal.

def rate_animal(an_animal):#defining method rate_animal

   if an_animal=="cat":#defining if block to check valu

       return 1 #return value 1

   elif an_animal=="dog":# defining elif block to check another value

       return 2 #return value 2

   elif an_animal=="capybara":# defining elif block to check another value

       return 3 #return value 3

   elif an_animal=="danger noodle":# defining elif block to check another value

       return 4 #return value 4

   else:

       return -1 #return value -1

print("dog Rating: ",rate_animal("dog"))#calling method and print its return value

print("cat Rating: ",rate_animal("cat"))#calling method and print its return value

print("capybara Rating: ",rate_animal("capybara"))#calling method and print its return value

print("danger noodle Rating: ",rate_animal("danger noodle"))#calling method and print its return value

print("Horse Rating: ",rate_animal("horse"))#calling method and print its return value

Output:

dog Rating:  2

cat Rating:  1

capybara Rating:  3

danger noodle Rating:  4
