Answer to Question #159657 in Python for Meera

Question

'''

(a) Output the times-tables (from 1 to 12) for whichever number the user requests. For example, if the user enters 3, your output should be: (1K)

1 x 3 = 3

2 x 3 = 6

...

12 x 3 = 36

Extension:

(b) Allow the user to specify the start and end to the table (e.g., 4 to 15); (2K)

(c) Allow the user to specify the step size (e.g., by 3 is 4, 7, 10, 13). (2T)

'''

Answer 1

"""
let's create a function, the result of which is printing line by line
times-tables
function arguments:
elem - table item value
start_tab -the default starting index of the table is 1
end_tab -default final table index is 12
step_tab -default table step 1
