Guys I am building a Billing Program(Project). I am a beginner and am coding this project on python using functions. I am using different functions for Menu and Veg non veg beverages etc...So first the Menu is printed and then the User Selects what he wants . But when he clicks Veg or Beverage Menu(for example) I display all the items on the respective Menu including option to exit. But I cannot exit or terminate the function using return. Can anyone suggest how to get out of the function and again return the MainMenu
using return or break*

What I have tried:

I have tried to use return and break.

Could you show me the code? From this, "But I cannot exit or terminate the function + break" I believe there is something like while loop before the return statement, use a debugger and see whether the program goes for the return statement. Also make sure it to return things from the while loop if the data gets matched or something.

Note: this is just an assumption, better conclusions can only be derived from looking into your code.

Simple: break your code into multiple functions.
Create a function to display the menu and get a response.
Create a function to handle "Veg", and a separate one to handle "Beverage".
Then your main function sets up a loop, inside which it calls the menu, and uses the result to cal "Veg", call "Beverage", or to return from the main function if "Exit" is selected.

Make sense?
