Report a typo

Consider the following Python code:

numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

# square each number in the list
for i in range(len(numbers)):
    numbers[i] = numbers[i] ** 2

# print the squared numbers
for num in numbers:
    print(num)

How can this code be transformed into a functional program?

Select one or more options from the list

Define a new function that squares each number and prints the result, then use a for loop to iterate over the original list and call the function on each element.

Modify the original list in place using a map function that squares each number and then print the squared numbers.

Use a list comprehension to generate a new list of squared numbers and assign it to a variable, then print the squared numbers.

Wrap the code in a function that takes the list of numbers as an argument and returns a new list of squared numbers.
