Functions are like this:

function apples(atom a, atom b, sequence blah)
:
:
: do whatever functions do
return (result1,result2...)
end function

Procedures are like this:

procedure update_screen()
:
:
: do whatever your procedure does
:
end procedure

pretty much anything that isn't inside the function..end function and
procedure..end procedure (or type..end type) is program and is executed in
the order it is in the source code beginning to end.

You can stick program code around your functions and procedures if you
want to. Its pretty sloppy, but you can do it if you want to.
