*Function*, not purpose.  Its purpose is what someone intended
with it (if anyone intended anything), there may be no purpose or
more than one purpose.  Purposes may or may not coinicde with
functions.

Your purpose for your post may have been to give me haemorrhoids,
but that has not been its function.  You'll need to shove harder
to achieve that purpose.
