In general, a callable unit is a list of instructions that, starting at the first instruction, executes sequentially except as directed via its internal logic. It can be invoked (called) many times during the [[Execution (computing)|execution]] of a program. Execution continues at the next instruction after the call instruction when it [[Return statement|returns]] control.
