How to create your own Wolfram Language function. Learn what makes a good function, standard function structure, arguments, patterns, options, recursion and iteration, memoization and upvalues, error handling and extra tips.
Summary
Learn what makes a good Wolfram Language function and how to create one on your own. We'll begin slow with standard function syntax and structure, then move on to arguments, patterns and options. We'll also cover topics like how to extend a function's capability with overloading, recursion and iteration, memoization and function upvalues. Later sessions will discuss error handling and extra tips. Some programming knowledge is recommended for this Study Group.
