What is the Difference between a sub and a function?..

Answer / bart calixto

yeah, sure.. everyone says that but...

what's the purpose of sub.?
I can do a function

Function ThisIsASub()
write "HELLO WORLD"
end Function

wow! I have a sub now.

so, besides the stupid reason that sub don't return value, what's the point of using subs?

If like someone create a newIF but it doesn't support ELSE... what's the point?

Greetings,
Bart.

What is the Difference between a sub and a function?..

Answer / raju chauhan

Like a Function procedure, a Sub procedure is a separate
procedure that can take arguments, perform a series of
statements, and change the value of its arguments. However,
unlike a Function procedure, which returns a value, a Sub
procedure can't be used in an expression.
