Function Syntax

Features

Declaration: A function begins with def and ends with colon (:).
The beginning and ending of a function is specified by an indentation of the code.
The interface and implementation are not separated. However, they must have been defined before they are used.
An error occurs if the function name is the same as a reserved word or interpreter internal function name.

To avoid this, use the function name as using the prefix "fn_", if possible.

Caution

Never use the following reserved words as variable names or function names.

and	assert	break	class	continue
def	del	elif	else	except
exec	finally	for	from	global
if	import	in	is	lambda
list	not	open	or	pass
print	raise	return	try	while
with	yield	select

Example

PY

# Example
def fn_Times(a, b):
  return a * b

fn_Times (10, 10)

def fn_Times(a, b):
   return a * b

tp_log(str(fn_Times(10, 5)))
#expected result: 50

def movej():    
  return 0   	# movej should not be used as a function name as interpreter
		# internal function name
