-- Type in formulas, plug in numbers and hit enter to see the result time = distance/speed speed = 50 -- mph distance = 187 -- miles time:3.740; -- hours -- Functions are similar but use parameters tim(dist,spd) = dist/spd tim(187,50):3.740 -- One reason to use functions is to allow using the same formula more than once in an expression tim(187,50) + tim(70,30):6.073
