don't say that. subs and functions are just synonyms. it is how you use
the sub that changes its meaning.

subs in perl ALWAYS return something, either the value from return or
the last evaluated expression. even an empty sub {} returns undef/()
depending on wantarray. it is up the caller to use or ignore the return
value.
