In Python, **`pass`** is a `null` statement. The interpreter does not ignore a `pass` statement, but nothing happens and the statement results into *no operation.*

The `pass` statement is useful when you don’t write the implementation of a function but you want to implement it in the future. 
>So, to avoid compilation errors, you can use the `pass` statement.


# Syntax

The syntax of the `pass` statement is:
```python
   pass
```


# Example


## Writing a function with no body

`addition()` function has no implemention:

def addition(num1, num2):
  # Implementation will go here 
  pass # Pass statement

addition(2, 2)

## Ignoring an `if` statement implementation 

`if` statement has no implementation:

# This functions prints the number if its not 2
def display(number):
  
  if number is 2:
    pass # Pass statement
  else:
    print ("Number: ", number)
    
display(2)
display(3)
