defineFunction(function, macro)

defineFunction(function, macro, ignoreOutput)

defineFunction(function, macro, ignoreOutput, newScope)

Parameters

function - The name of the user defined function to be defined.
macro - The name and location of the macro that is called when the user defined function is used.
ignoreOutput - If the defined function should ignore all output and only return the value of macro.return, defaults to false(0).
newScope - If the defined function should create a new variable scope when executed, defaults to true(1). A new variable scope means that the defined function can only read the variables of the macro that called it; if you do not create a new scope the defined function can read, update, and create variables in its parent's variable scope.
