3.2.11 Substitution Operations
If you plan to process a program with various operands and without a lot of changes, it is advisable
to assign parameters to individual operands ( 2.3.4).
If you have to change the operands, you only need to reassign the parameters in the function
block call.
These parameters are processed in the program as "formal operands".
Special operations are necessary for this processing. However, these special operations are no
different in their effect than operations without substitution. A brief description of these
operations and examples follows.
