## 4.3. Importing Files
In AVAP, it is possible to import the contents of other code files. The `import file.avap` statement inserts the contents of the specified file at the exact point where the import statement appears. This process is linear and sequential, meaning that the imported content is executed as if it were part of the original file.
It is crucial that the necessary functions are defined before they are called. If a function is not defined before its call, a `NameError` exception will be raised.
Example of import usage:
```javascript
avap
// Content of the file main.avap
addVar(x, 10)
include functions.avap
myFunction(x)
// Content of the file functions.avap
function myFunction(y){
addVar(result, y + 5)
addResult(result)
}
```
