As I understand it, a function in a logical language
is the same as a proposition with another argument.

The result of the function can be replaced by a variable
and the "call" of the function is the same as a conjunction
with the proposition with the variable as the functional argument.

A logical language "function" is radically different than 
imperative language 'function".

They really are the same idea.
Any decent programming language
lets you define new functions.

Now let's say the same for
any decent logic language.
