FAST Creativity & Innovation: Rapidly Improving Processes, Product Development and Solving Complex Problems

At the end of Chapter 3 it was suggested that you get some experience in writing functions. Six projects were presented for you to name all the functions you could think of. I trust that you have tried your skill on at least two or three of them. The entire FAST Creativity technique deals with functions from beginning to end. Therefore, it is vital that you learn how to name functions.
