| The  Functions Tab  lists all the 279 built-in
            mathematical functions of GeneXproTools and gives access to the
            following settings and features:
             
              
            Function Selection Framework 
            Allows the selection of different function sets very quickly
            through the combination of the Show options with the
            Random/Default/Clear/Select All buttons plus the Increase/Reduce
            Weight buttons. 
             
            Number of Functions 
            The number of functions with a certain arity you whish to select
            randomly by using the Random button. 
             
            Maximum Arity 
            Determines the sub-set of functions from which the Random button
            will draw a specified number of functions. For instance, by setting
            maximum arity to 1, only functions of one argument will be drawn; by
            setting maximum arity to 2, only functions of 1 and 2 arguments will
            be randomly chosen, and so forth. 
             
            Random Button 
            Selects randomly a specified number of functions belonging to
            four different sub-sets of functions: functions of just one
            argument, functions of 1-2 arguments, functions of 1-3 arguments,
            and functions of 1-4 arguments. 
             
            Default Button 
            Adds the function set of the  run template to the current
            function set. To revert exactly to the default function set you must
            press the Clear button before pressing Default. 
             
            Clear Button 
            Clears all the functions from the function set. 
             
            Select All Button 
            Selects all the functions showing currently on the table. 
             
            Show List Box 
            Shows a wide variety of function sub-sets (All functions,
            Searched functions, Selected Only, Arity 1 Only, Arity 2 Only, Arity
            3 Only, Arity 4 Only, and DDFs Only). By selecting Search, the
            search box becomes activated and you can enter specific words to
            find functions that match your criteria in the Name column. 
             
            Search Button 
            Searches, in the Name column, for the functions matching your
            search words. 
             
            Add Weight 
            Increments by one the weight of each selected function. 
             
            Reduce Weight 
            Reduces by one the weight of each selected function; functions
            with weight 1, though, remain as they are. 
             
            Select/Weight Column 
            To select a function, check the box on the left. By doing this, the function is included in your function set with the default weight of 1. To increase its weight, click the box below Select/Weight and then
            introduce its weight. 
             
            Name Column
            
             
            Under this heading is shown the common name of all the mathematical
            functions used by GeneXproTools. 
             
            Representation Column
            
             
            Under this heading is shown how all the functions are represented in
             Karva notation. 
             
            Arity Column
            
             
            Under this heading is shown the arity (number of arguments) of all
            the functions. 
             
            Definition Column
            
             
            Under this heading is shown the mathematical definition of all GeneXproTools
            functions and the definition you gave to all
            the DDFs. 
             
            Dynamic UDFs Framework 
            Allows the introduction of dynamic
            UDFs in your function set. 
             
            Add Button 
            Opens the  Edit DDF window for designing a new
            DDF. 
             
            Edit
            
             Button
            
             
            Opens the  Edit DDF window for editing an
            existing DDF. To edit a DDF, you must first select the DDF you want to modify, and then click the Edit button. 
             
            Remove
            
             Button
            
             
            Removes an existing DDF. To remove a DDF, you must first select the DDF you want to remove, and then click the Remove button. A less radical way of removing a DDF, consists of
            unchecking this function or setting its weight to zero. This way you will be able to use it later if you wish.
