what does it mean when you are asked, What is a return type in Kotlin?

[andylamax]

a return type is basically a type that gets returned by the function.

e.g.

fun say(): String {
  return "Hello World";
}

would return an object of type String when invoked. The object would contain the text " Hello World", but it is of type string
