Print the returned value. It is assumed that the first date occurs first. Forinstance, if the users calls the function with FUNCTION([12, 10], [12, 20]) as arguments, thereturned value is 10 days. However, if FUNCTION([12, 20], [12, 10]) is called, the returnedvalue is -10 days.Assume February has 28 days.Test data: [10, 30], [5, 20] [1, 30], [5, 25] [5, 25], [1, 30] [1, 1], [12, 31]arrow_forward
