Functions

Functions don’t have to be declared before they’re called:

void main() {
    println(sum(1, 2)); // prints 3
}

int sum(int a, int b) {
    return a + b;
}

Functions may be overloaded on parameter types:

void foo(int i) {
    println("int");
}

void foo(bool b) {
    println("bool");
}

void main() {
    foo(42); // prints "int"
    foo(false); // prints "bool"
}

Functions may be overloaded on parameter names:

void foo(public int a) {
    println("a");
}

void foo(public int b) {
    println("b");
}

void main() {
    foo(a: 42); // prints "a"
    foo(b: 42); // prints "b"
}

Functions can return multiple values using tuples:

(int a, bool b) foo() {
    return (a: 42, b: true);
}

void main() {
    var result = foo();
    println(result.a); // prints 42
    println(result.b); // prints true
}
