    <p>
    Functions can be used by inserting the name of the function followed by the function argument.
    If the argument is not a number or <link xref="variable">variable</link> then use parenthesis around the argument.
    </p>
    <example>
    <p>
    sin 30
    </p>
    <p>
    abs (5−9)
    </p>
    </example>
