=={{header|Amazing Hopper}}==
Hopper has no functions, but they can be declared with macros, which are resolved at compile time. Access to the working stack is global, but "local" variables can be declared in program segments written after the ".locals" clause. Let's look at some examples of declaring "functions".
<syntaxhighlight lang="c">

Return \\

Args 'a,b'
Return ( #(a*b) )\\
#synon anothermul *getanotherproduct

A function in AppleScript is called a "handler". It can take one of three different forms, depending on what the scripter finds most convenient. Calls to it must match the form used in the handler definition. The above is an example of a handler with "positional" parameters. Either <code>to</code> or <code>on</code> may be used as the first word in the headerhandler linedefinition. When the script's is compiled, the handler label is automatically appended to the <code>end</code> line too if it wasn't written in.
 
Handler names followed by zero or more parameters within parentheses are called "positional" -- the number and order of the parameters in the caller must match those in the handler definition.
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="applescript">on multiply(a, b)
Line 350 ⟶ 429:
multiply(2, 3)</syntaxhighlight>
 
AppleScript also offers handlers with "labeledprepositional" [sic]labeled parameters. These aren't used muchoften now asbecause the limited choiceset of labelAppleScript-defined enumsprepositions makes it difficult to choose ones that make sense in English, although it's just about possible. here:
 
These prepositions can be used: <code>about, above, against, apart from, around, aside from, at, below, beneath, beside, between, by, for, from, instead of, into, on, onto, out of, over, since, thru, through, and under</code>. Also, <code>of</code> is available, but if used it must be the first parameter.

{{works with|QBasic}}
In ANSI BASIC, functions can be defined as either formulas or multi-line external or internal subroutines. External functions are independent program units that can be called from within the program. Internal functions are considered part of the program unit they are contained in and can only be called from within that unit. External functions do not share any information with other program units and exchange information through parameters and returned values. Internal functions share everything with their surrounding program unit except for their parameters. Internal functions do not have local variables.

If mul is used several times within an expression E, then they can share the same definition by using <code>(\mul. E)(\m\n\f. m (n f))</code>. For example, the cube function is <code>\n. (\mul. mul n (mul n n)) (\m\n\f. m (n f))</code> which in BLC is

=== Function decleration ===
A function body may use curly braces, but it is not required if it is a single expression.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lang">
fp.multiply = ($a, $b) -> {
return parser.op($a * $b)
}
</syntaxhighlight>
 
=== One-line function decleration ===
A return statement may be used, but a function's last value is its implicit return value.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lang">
fp.multiply = ($a, $b) -> return parser.op($a * $b)
</syntaxhighlight>
 
=== Function decleration by using operator functions ===
Functions defined with explicit parameters may be closures, and those defined with implied parameters are not.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lang">
fp.multiply = fn.mul
</syntaxhighlight>
 
=== Function decleration by using combinator functions ===
Langur functions are first-order. They are pure in terms of setting values, though not in terms of I/O.
Combinator functions can be called partially, fn.argCnt2 is used to force the caller to provide 2 arguments to prevent partially calling fp.multiply
<syntaxhighlight lang="lang">
fp.multiply = fn.argCnt2(fn.combA2(fn.mul))
</syntaxhighlight>
 
=== Function decleration with call by pointer ===
=== explicit parameters ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lang">
Explicit parameters are defined with parentheses after the f token, with no spacing. To specify no parameters, use an empty set of parentheses.
<syntaxhighlight lang="langur">val fp.multiply = f(.x$[a], .y$[b]) .x-> x .y{
return parser.op($*a * $*b) # Pointers can be dereferenced by using *

=== implied parameters ===
Parameters are implieddefined whenwithin parentheses after the ffn token is not immediately followed by parentheses without spacing. TheTo impliedspecify order of impliedno parameters, isuse basedan onempty the string sort orderset of their names, not their order within the functionparentheses.
<syntaxhighlight lang="langur">val .multiply = f fn(.x, .y) { .x * .y }
.multiply(3, 4)</syntaxhighlight>
 
=== operator implied functions ===
Operator implied functions are built using an infix operator between curly braces on an ffn token.
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="langur">val .multiply = fn{*}
{{works with|langur|0.6.6}}
<syntaxhighlight lang="langur">val .multiply = f{x}
