# FunctionType

Class in [Yarn](/api/csharp/yarn.md)

Inherits from `System.Object`

## Summary

A type that represents a function.

```csharp
public class FunctionType : IType, IEquatable<IType>
```

## Remarks

Functions have parameters and a return type, and can be called from script. Instances of this type are created when the host application registers new functions (such as through using the [RegisterFunction(string,Delegate)](/api/csharp/yarn/yarn.library/yarn.library.registerfunction-7.md) methods or similar.)
