If I call a function several time then will it execute every time or just execute once and the value will be used then after several time?
Example:
select my_function('filed'),my_function('filed')/field2,
(my_function('filed')*field1)/field3,
...... from my_table where group by filed1;
My question is my_function('filed') will be executed once and then the result will be used in my_function('filed')/field2 and (my_function('filed')*field1)/field3 or every time my_function('filed') will be called and executed in system level ?

Why not use a variable that catch the value of your function.
For example:
declare var_function (datatype(size)); // just to declare proper data type for your function
set var_function = my_function('filed');
select var_function, var_function/field2,
(var_function*field1)/field3,
....from my_table where group by filed1;
in that case, you'll be going to reuse the function result and no need to repeat the process of the function.
