This is very well covered in the User's Guide [U]. In fact the basics of
Stata programming are covered there too. Despite its name, the
Programming manual is not the first place to look. A more accurate name
for that would be "Further aspects of Stata programming".

documents describing how to write a function in Stata with arguments
(where the function is a do-file).
