    Use the output of a function in another function

    Say I have a function `func` that does a certain task, returning some expression `exp`. Can I use this expression in another function without having to call `func` again, which I suppose will redo all the steps needed to derive `exp` in the first place? E.g double func() {...

    Power output of a theoretical generator

    so, assuming that you know all of the aspects of your theoretical generator, apart from the voltage and current, how would you work it out. I know that it is possible, but i can't find anything that I understand, or is even valid online. There should be some equations i can use to work it all...
