Hi, the a function should have this form in general:

func myFunction(namedParameter: String) -> String {

  //code

}

Except with myFunction and namedParameter renamed whatever reusable name you want to use.

Calling a function means to implement it in your code.:

myFunction(value);

Sorry, can't really help more without giving the answer!
