What is wrong with this basin-hopping usage?

from scipy.optimize import basinhopping

def f(x):
    return (x - 5)**2

result = basinhopping(f, 0, niter='ten')
print(result.fun)

AFunction f must accept two arguments

Bniter must be an integer, not a string

CInitial guess cannot be zero

Dbasinhopping does not have niter parameter

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Check niter parameter type
niter controls number of iterations and must be integer.
Step 2: Identify error
Passing 'ten' (string) causes type error.
Final Answer:
niter must be an integer, not a string -> Option B
Quick Check:
niter type = integer required [OK]

Quick Trick: niter expects integer count, not string [OK]
