You can create user-defined functions or programs by typing definition
statements on the Calculator entry line or by using the Program Editor.
The Program Editor offers some advantages, and it is covered in this
section. For information on defining programs and functions in

define functions and programs using correct syntax.

without requiring a special key sequence to add each line.

functions, and programs). For details, see the “Libraries” chapter.
