-	A function ~~does not create~~ a ~~new thread, and therefore the~~ [[process]] ~~which [[call\|called]]~~ the function waits until the function is completed ~~before continuing executing its code~~.	+	The difference between a function and a [[process]] is that the calling process or function waits until the function is completed. When a process or function calls a process, it doesn't wait. This means that, even when the called function contains [[frame]] statements, the calling function or process still waits for the function to finish. This is shown in [[Tutorial:Textinput\|this tutorial]].

-	~~As opposed to~~ a process~~, a~~ function doesn't ~~have a~~ [[frame]]~~; statement~~. ~~See~~ [[~~process~~]] ~~for more information~~.	+
