Functions and function blocks are two very important ingredients in a typical VPL program.
Functions and function blocks makes it possible to structure a program in a way that makes it much more reader-friendly and comprehensible. They also enable one very important thing - namely reusability. By using functions and function blocks, it is possible to create general functions that can be reused in many different programs. It is always a good idea to try to make general and well-documented functions as this will greatly improve the usability.
On the RTCU platform, whenever one accesses the cellular module, uses a timer, or prints on the display, the tool that makes this possible to do in a simple way is either a function or a function block.
