MySQL Declaring functions in CSH

Hi all,
It might seem like a very trivial question but I am new to shell scripting so excuse for that.

I have an existing script in CSH. I need to create a function in the script which takes some parameters and returns a result. Can someone please let me know the syntax for function declaration and how to call the function passing parameters.

Also if someone has a good tutorial with examples on CSH please send me the link.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Tipsy
