You can simplify it by saying "A subroutine is a function that is called
by another function." But, how can you explain the concept of a
subroutine to somebody who doesn't even know what a function is?
While the term "subroutine" has fallen out of popular use, I know what
it is and what it means without even thinking about it. It's that type
of foundation that is required for learning OOP.
