function readformatEvent()
local a Declares variable a.
a= test_1() Stores the result of test_1() in variable a.
a = a .. "ABC" Appends character string "ABC" to variable a.
return(a) Outputs the result.
end
function test_1() Defines the user-defined function test_1().
local c Declares variable c.
c = 123 Assigns "123" to variable c.
return(c) The value of variable c is the return value.
end
Execution result 123ABC
