Functions and Macros

Functions can be used in nodes and fields of the target structure. Functions are like functions of a programming language. They have input parameters and a return value and may perform certain operations. However, no programming skills are necessary as these functions are very simple. Multiple functions can be run successively on a target field. We call this a function chain.

Macros offer the possibility to encapsulate and reuse function chains. This allows the compact use of function chains and a central maintenance of these.
