Define a function named coin_flip that returns "Heads" or "Tails" according to a random value 1 or 0. Assume the value 1 represents "Heads" and 0 represents "Tails". Then, write a main program that reads the desired number of coin flips as an input, calls function coin_flip() repeatedly according to the number of coin flips, and outputs the results. Assume the input is a value greater than 0.

here is my code:

import random

# Define your function here
def coin_flip(number_of_flips):
heads_tails = [0, 1]
count = 0
while count != number_of_flips:
end_value = random.choice(heads_tails)
if end_value == 1:
print('Heads')
count += 1
else:
print('Tails')
count += 1

return

if __name__ == '__main__':
random.seed(5)
number_of_flips = int(input())
flips = number_of_flips
coin_flip(flips)
