# Functions are similar to Blocks. Where Blocks can be jumped to, Functions can be called.
# Functions also have arguments, though they are handled differently (in register allocation)
# Functions have a exactly three blocks, entry, exit and body, which are created for you
# with straight branches between them.
# Also remember that if your den body exists of severa blocks, they must be wrapped in a
# block as the function really only has the one, and blocks only assemble their codes,
# not their next links
# This comes at zero runtime cost though, as the wrapper is just the sum of it's codes
# If you change the body block to point elsewhere, remember to end up at exit
