Write a function s(n) that will return a list of the first n squares.

def s(n): ans=[] #This variable stores the list we will return. for i in range(n): #This is a for loop that will iterate n times. ans.append((i+1)**2) #This adds the (i+1)th square to the list, because range() is 0-indexed. return ans
