### Return values

And they can return values or not, the values won't be used.

So, you can re-use a normal dependency (that returns a value) you already use somewhere else, and even though the value won't be used, the dependency will be executed:

=== "Python 3.9+"

    ```Python hl_lines="11  16"

        api("com.github.javaparser:javaparser-symbol-solver-core:$javaParserVersion")
        api("com.google.guava:guava:27.1-jre")
        api("com.google.errorprone:error_prone_annotations:2.5.1")
        api("com.google.code.gson:gson:2.8.9")
        api("com.nhaarman:mockito-kotlin:1.6.0")
        api("com.thoughtworks.qdox:qdox:2.0.3")
        api("com.uwyn:jhighlight:1.0")
        api("com.vladsch.flexmark:flexmark-all:0.34.60") {

    ```Python hl_lines="7"
    {!> ../../../docs_src/path_params_numeric_validations/tutorial002.py!}
    ```

But keep in mind that if you use `Annotated`, you won't have this problem, it won't matter as you're not using the function parameter default values for `Query()` or `Path()`.

=== "Python 3.9+"

    ```Python hl_lines="10"

    {!> ../../../docs_src/additional_status_codes/tutorial001.py!}
    ```

!!! warning
    When you return a `Response` directly, like in the example above, it will be returned directly.

    It won't be serialized with a model, etc.

    Make sure it has the data you want it to have, and that the values are valid JSON (if you are using `JSONResponse`).

!!! note "Technical Details"
