 ## Overview
 
-A function is defined by writing a function signature after the `:` and a statement (expression or `{` `}` compound statement) after the `=`. After the optional [template parameters](declarations.md#template-parameters) available for all declarations, a function signatures consists of a possibly-empty [parameter list](#parameters), and an optional function [return values](#return-values).

 (2) **`#!cpp -> ( /* parameter list */ )`** to return a list of named return parameters using the same [parameters](#parameters) syntax, but where the only passing styles are `out` (the default, which moves where possible) or `forward`. The function body must [initialize](objects.md#init) the value of each return-parameter `ret` in its body the same way as any other local variable. An explicit return statement is written just `#!cpp return;` and returns the named values; the function has an implicit `#!cpp return;` at the end. For example:
