functions

writing
calling
overloading 

writing(书写)

keyword fun (or function) followed by the return type and then the name of the function. After the name of the function parentheses(括号) must be opened to declare the types of the input arguments.

    // define function call 'funk'
    fun void funk( int arg )
    {
        // insert code here
    }

    // define function 'addOne'
    fun int addOne(int x)
    {
        // result
        return x + 1;
    }

calling(调用)

    // define 'hey'
    fun int hey( int a, int b )
    {
        // do something
        return a + b;
    }

    // call the function; store result
    hey( 1, 2 ) => int result;

You can also use the ChucK operator to call functions!

    // call hey
    ( 1, 2 ) => hey => int result;

    // same
    hey( 1, 2 ) => int result;

    // several in a row
    ( 10, 100 ) => Std.rand2 => Std.mtof => float foo;

    // same 返回值做参数
    Std.mtof( Std.rand2( 10, 100 ) ) => float foo;

overloading(重载)

Overloading a function allows functions with the same name to be defined(定义) with different arguments. The function must be written in separate instances(实例) to handle the input, and the return type must agree(一致).

    // funk( int )
    fun int add(int x)
    {
        return x + x;
    }

    // funk( int, int )
    fun int add(int x, int y)
    {
        return x + y;
    }

    // compiler automatically choose the right one to call
    add( 1 ) => int foo;
    add( 1, 2 ) => int bar;
