Step 1. Function Basics

Daniel Shiffman of The Coding Train introduces the fundamental concept of a "function" in programming.

One World shows how to make a nice bouncing ball. The other World shows how to separate out that code into separate functions, so not all the code has to be inside the draw() function.

Again, we assume you have done Introduction to Programming: Part One.
