Calling function-- how to call simply return value, not whole process

[juliabrushett]

Hello,

The program I am creating will take in a value produced by the user and output both that value and the square of the value. I am to use functions for both intaking and squaring the value. However, my output returns the "Enter a number: " statement twice, leading me to believe that when I invoke the getValue() function in my "The square of the value is " statement in main I am calling beyond the value and going for the whole process of getValue. How do I forego this and simply return the value? Output is as follows currently, code below:

Enter a value: 2
The value entered is 2
Enter a value: 2
The square of the value is 4

def getValue():
    val = int(input("Enter a number: "))
    return val
def squareValue():
    val = getValue()

    square = val * val
    return square

print("The value entered is", getValue())
print("The value squared is", squareValue())
