 Some functions may return miscellaneous types and you have to explicitly tell the compiler which type you require. Just like with variables, the return type of a function is denoted with a [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigil_(computer_programming)|sigil]]. For example, the [[ABS|ABS function]] can return an integer or a float: Some functions may return miscellaneous types and you have to explicitly tell the compiler which type you require. Just like with variables, the return type of a function is denoted with a [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigil_(computer_programming)|sigil]]. For example, the [[ABS|ABS function]] can return an integer or a float:
  
-  myInt = ABS(-5) +  myInt = abs(-5) 
-  myFloat = ABS%(-3.14)+  myFloat%= abs%(-3.14)
  
 +Another example is [[RND|RND]] that can return three types:

 +  myRandomByte!  = rnd!()
 +  myRandomInt    = rnd()
 +  myRandomFloat% = rnd%()
