How can I use decorators with arguments in Python?

You can create a decorator that takes arguments by defining a function that returns a decorator. Would you like an example?

Yes, please provide an example.

Here's a simple example:

def repeat(num_times):
    def decorator_repeat(func):
        def wrapper(*args, **kwargs):
            for _ in range(num_times):
                func(*args, **kwargs)
        return wrapper
    return decorator_repeat

@repeat(3)
def greet(name):
    print(f'Hello, {name}!')

# Calling greet('Alice') will print 'Hello, Alice!' three times.

That's great! Can you explain how the inner functions work?

Sure! The outer function repeat takes an argument num_times and returns the decorator_repeat function. This function takes the original function as an argument and defines the wrapper function, which calls the original function multiple times.
