String functions perform operations on string values and return either numeric or string values. Using string functions, you can, for example, combine data, extract a substring, compare strings, or convert a string to all uppercase or lowercase characters. CONCAT ( string_value1, string_value...

funcname = function(paramA, paramB, ...) body; return exprlist end -- a simple function function funcname(paramA, paramB, ...) body; return exprlist end -- shorthand for above local funcname = function(paramA, paramB, ...) body; return exprlist end -- a lambda local funcname; funcname = functio...

Help text can be located before or after the function line, as long as there is not code between the function line and the start of the help text. Capitalization of the function name only bolds the name, and is not required. If a line is prepended with See also, any names on the line that mat...

(function name) ; retrieves the function object of that name #'name ; syntactic sugar for (function name) (symbol-function symbol) ; returns the function bound to symbol (funcall function args...) ; call function with args (apply function arglist) ; call function with arguments given in a list...

Constructor functions are actually just regular functions, there's nothing special about them. It's only the new keyword which causes the special behavior shown in the examples above. Constructor functions can still be called like a regular function if desired, in which case you would need to bind...

ParameterDetailsRETURNSSpecifies the data type that can be returned from a function.RETURNActual variable or value following the RETURN syntax is what is returned to where the function was called from. A stored routine is either a procedure or a function. A procedure is invoked using a CALL st...

Scala goes to great lengths to treat methods and functions as syntactically identical. But under the hood, they are distinct concepts. A method is executable code, and has no value representation. A function is an actual object instance of type Function1 (or a similar type of another arity). It...

A function is basically a named block of code. When you call the function name, the script block within that function runs. It is a list of PowerShell statements that has a name that you assign. When you run a function, you type the function name.It is a method of saving time when tackling repetitiv...

This extension filters data by either validating or sanitizing it. This is especially useful when the data source contains unknown (or foreign) data, like user supplied input. For example, this data may come from an HTML form. mixed filter_var ( mixed $variable [, int $filter = FILTER_DEFAULT ...

virtual void f(); virtual void g() = 0; // C++11 or later: virtual void h() override; void i() override; virtual void j() final; void k() final; Only non-static, non-template member functions can be virtual. If you are using C++11 or later, it is recommended to use ...

R has many built-in functions to work with probability distributions, with official docs starting at ?Distributions. There are generally four prefixes: d-The density function for the given distribution p-The cumulative distribution function q-Get the quantile associated with the given probabi...

(define (name arguments ...) body) (function arguments ...)

-- defining a function with no arguments looks the same as simply defining a value language = "Elm" -- calling a function with no arguments by stating its name language -- parameters are separated by spaces and follow the function's name add x y = x + y -- call a function in the s...

The main difference between macros and functions is, that macros are evaluated within the current context, while functions open a new scope within the current one. Thus, variables defined within functions are not known after the function has been evaluated. On the contrary, variables within macros...

Anonymous functions can be created using LAMBDA. Local functions can be defined using LABELS or FLET. Their parameters are defined the same was as in global named functions.
