What is trajectory? Its not a standard Python function 
so we can't be too helpful in fixing errors unless we 
know more about it.

This is OK so far...

Now this passes your function and a value to trajectory.
That could be right if trajectory looks like:

def trajectory(f,v): return f(v)

but if trajectory looks like:

def trajectory(v): return v

Then your code needs some extra parens adding.

But even then the error would be different so can 
you paste the complete error message so that we 
can see exactly what it says?

But well done for trying to do the code yourself first, 
we do appreciate you taking that effort.
