Instead of manually adding parameters to URLs when making a request, you can specify parameters separately and the Requests module will format the URL accordingly. Parameters may be added in a dictionary like so:
```python
requests.get('https://api.baseurl.com', params = {'key1': 'value1', 'key2': 'value2'})
```

Request Parameters in the Python Requests Module

Requests made with the Requests module return an instance of the Response class. These objects contain a variety of attributes that represent the data returned by a server from your request.

Response Objects

HTTP requests are very simple to make using the Requests module. Use the following functions to make any kind of basic HTTP request:
```python
requests.get('https://api.placeholderurl.com')
requests.post('https://placeholderurl.com/post', data = {'key', 'value'})
requests.put('https://placeholderurl.com/put', data = {'key', 'value'})
requests.delete('https://placeholderurl.com/delete')
requests.head('https://placeholderurl.com/get')
requests.options('https://placeholderurl.com/get')
```
Each function requires a URL parameter as a string, and both post and put require a dictionary parameter containing the relevant data you would like to send. Each function returns a Response object.
