I know that this code would look a lot better if I made it so that checking the current prices against the open prices were in a function. This would avoid rewriting it for every stock I want to check. But I'm not sure how to get started on doing that properly. Do any of you have some tips to get me started?from yahoo_finance import Shareapple = Share('AAPL')appleopen = float(apple.get_open())applecurrent = float(apple.get_price())if appleopen > applecurrent:    print((Apple is down for the day. Current price is), applecurrent)else:    print((Apple is up for the day! Current price is ), applecurrent)applechange = (applecurrent - appleopen)if applechange > 0:    print(('The price moved'),abs(applechange),(to the upside today.))else:    print(('The priced moved'),abs(applechange),(to the downside today.))print('-----------------------')nflx = Share('NFLX')nflxopen = float(nflx.get_open())nflxcurrent = float(nflx.get_price())if nflxopen > nflxcurrent:    print((Netflix is down for the day. Current price is), nflxcurrent)else:    print((Netflix is up for the day! Current price is ), nflxcurrent)nflxchange = (nflxcurrent - nflxopen)if nflxchange > 0:    print(('The price moved'),abs(nflxchange),(to the upside today.))else:    print(('The priced moved'),abs(nflxchange),(to the downside today.))

As you yourself noted, you need a function:def financial_info(acronym):    company = Share(acronym)    company_open = float(company.get_open())    company_current = float(company.get_price())    if company_open > company_current:        print(company,  is down for the day. Current price is , company_current)    else:        print(company,  is up for the day! Current price is , company_current)    # ...I just wrote a part of it, you sure are able to finish it :)
