What's the differences between stored procedures, functions and routines?

Question

In MySQL database context, what is the difference among these 3 terms:

• stored procedure
• stored function
• stored routine<

Answer 1

PROCEDURES VS FUNCTIONS

1.  PROCEDURES may or may not return a value but FUNCTION must return a value
2.  PROCEDURES can have input/output parameter but FUNCTION only has input parameter.
3.  We can call FUNCTION from PROCEDURES but cannot call PROCEDURES from a function. 
4.  We cannot use PROCEDURES in SQL statement like SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, MERGE etc. but we can use them with FUNCTION.
5.  We can use try-catch exception handling in PROCEDURES but we cannot do that in FUNCTION. 
6.  We can use transaction in PROCEDURES but it is not possible in FUNCTION.
