 ==== FUNCTIONS ====
+The syntax for defining a function is as follows:
+  Function <Function Name> (<varname vartype>) : <result type>
+IE:
+  Function AddTen (Num Byte) : Byte
+  Begin
+    AddTen := Num + 10
+  End
+==== CONST VARIABLES ====
+The syntax for a constant variable is as follows:
+String constants:
+  Const
+    SomeStr = 'Hello World!'
+Numerical constants:
+  Const
+    SomeNum = 69
+Constant variables, like regular variables, can be separated with a comma:
+  Const
+    SomeNum = 69,
+    SomeStr = 'Hello World!'
+At the moment, constant variables cannot be used in certain places within the MPE engine.  If you are assigning a value to a variable, constant values will not be recognized.
