a value sent back from a function

The correct answer is: a value sent back from a function.

When a function is called, it can perform some operations and then return a value back to the caller. The return value is the output or result that the function generates. It can be a specific data type such as a number, a string, a boolean, or even an object.

To determine the return value of a function, you need to look at the function's definition or documentation. It may explicitly state the data type of the return value. Additionally, the function may contain a return statement followed by the value to be returned. By examining the function's code, you can identify what value is being sent back.
