These examples are meant to provide insight into the various ways of defining and using parameters. In many cases they do not illustrate best practices.

!! Examples
|
|
|
|
Below is an example macro, procedure and function definition. All three forms of parameter substitution `$a1$`, `<<__a1__>>`, and `<<a1>>` are included in each definition. The output helps illustrate when each form of substitution will or will not have affect.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
\define m1(a1) $a1$ - <<__a1__>> - <<a1>>
|
|
\procedure p1(a1) $a1$ - <<__a1__>> - <<a1>>
|
|
\function f1(a1) $a1$ "-" [<__a1__>] ="-" [<a1>] :and[join[ ]]
|
|
```

!Namespaces
|
|
|
|
*''tiddler titles'' - tiddlers are uniquely identified by their title. The namespace for tiddler titles and variable names are completely separate.
|
|
*''variables'' - \define, <<.wlink SetWidget>>, <<.wlink LetWidget>>, <<.wlink VarsWidget>>, \procedure, \widget, \function all create variables. If the same name is used, then later define will overwrite earlier defined
|
|
*''<<.op function>> filter operator parameter'' - only variables defined using \function can be called using the <<.olink function>> operator
|
|
*''filter operators'' - only the [[javascript defined filter operators|Filter Operators]] and variables defined using \function with name starting with a dot can be called
|
|
*''widgets'' - variables defined using \widget can be invoked using `<$widget/>` syntax ONLY if the name starts a dollar sign (to override existing javascript defined widgets) or double dollar sign (to define [[custom widgets|Custom Widgets]]). Without the dollar sign prefix, defining variables using \widget is no different than using \procedure.
