The S language is both an interactive language and a language for adding new functions to the S system. It is a complete programming language with control structures, recursion and a useful variety of data types. The S environment provides many functions to handle standard operations, but most users need occasionally to write new functions. This chapter is concerned with designing, writing, testing and correcting your own S functions.
