r - Running python function in RStudio - eof error in function definition

Question

I created the following python script in RStudio

import numpy as np

def test_function(a, b):
  print("We are in the function")
  return (a+b)
  
test_function(7,4)

line import numpy as np runs fine. It invokes python in console >>>

line with function definition leaves .... It looks like it is not completely executed.

line test_function(7,4) generates

SyntaxError: unexpected EOF while parsing (<string>, line 1)
We are in the function
11

What part of EOF am I missing?

Also, it seems like this script is using reticulate installation:

reticulate::repl_python()
... AppData/Local/r-miniconda/envs/r-reticulate/python.exe.

How can I tell it to use my conda virtual env. In reticulate, I would use something like reticulate::use_condaenv("env1"), but how can do it here?
