Comments
To write comments, use the character #. Any text from this character to the end of the line is ignored. Each line to be commented must be preceded by the # character, i.e. C-like multi-line comments are not allowed.

Functions
You can define your own functions in Macro. Functions can take any number of input arguments and can optionally enforce type-checking on them. A function does not need to have a return value.
