Umana functions

A function is a little software machine, which takes some information in and gives back a result.

  • Give it some values called arguments (numbers, strings, dates, logical (true/false))
  • It returns you a result
  • You care about what the function does, but not necessarily how it does it.
  • The function doesn't care where you got your arguments and what you do with the result.

For example, (addition) is a function. It takes 2 numbers as arguments and return back another number.
