Function Calling and Tools
🎧 Focus sounds
Soft beat sounds that many learners like while reading. Pick one, press Play, and keep studying.
Keep the volume low. These sounds are for comfort while studying, not a medical treatment. If you have epilepsy or are sensitive to pulsing sounds, use the background noise only.
In this lesson
Function calling (also called tool use) is how an LLM asks your code to do something. The model never runs code itself. It replies with “please call get_weather with {"city": "Pune"}“, your program runs the function, and you send the result back. This lesson shows the exact messages.
