My Notes

Wow I took a lot of time to get through this chapter - have just been busy.

This chapter has some nice and simple exercises to play with functions, and it explains about scope, ways to define your functions and, understanding the call stack.

The optional and default arguments were an interesting reminder for me that was useful for the exercises, plus there is an example purely for playing with recursion.
