Answer / bart calixto
yeah, sure.. everyone says that but...
what's the purpose of sub.?
I can do a function
Function ThisIsASub()
write "HELLO WORLD"
end Function
wow! I have a sub now.
so, besides the stupid reason that sub don't return value, what's the point of using subs?
If like someone create a newIF but it doesn't support ELSE... what's the point?
Greetings,
Bart.

Answer / digvijay
Sub is also function but never return the value and Function
must return the value.
Function is user defined and System define but sub is
keyworlds that defined by user.
function can be macro but Sub is Not.

Answer / raju chauhan
Like a Function procedure, a Sub procedure is a separate
procedure that can take arguments, perform a series of
statements, and change the value of its arguments. However,
unlike a Function procedure, which returns a value, a Sub
procedure can't be used in an expression.
