for any value of $n$ greater than 2.

1. Write a function named `checkfermat` that takes four parameters ($a$, $b$, $c$ and $n$) and checks to see if Fermat’s theorem holds. If $n$ is greater than 2 and $a^n + b^n == c^n$ the program should print, *"Holy smokes, Fermat was wrong!"* Otherwise, the program should print and return, *"No, that doesn’t work."*
2. Write a function that takes four random positive integers for $a$, $b$, $c$ and $n$, and use `checkfermat` to check whether they violate Fermat’s theorem.
2. Write a function that, when no input arguments are provided, four random positive integers are assigned to $a$, $b$, $c$ and $n$, and use `checkfermat` to check whether they violate Fermat’s theorem.
3. Can you write the code so that the functions in 4.1 and 4.2 have the same name?
