here is a generic shell of what your function should look like:

returnType functionName(dataType argumentOne, dataType argumentTwo) {

    return something;

}

the challenge tells you what the return type, name, and the data type of the arguments (you can name them whatever you want as long as they are valid variable names (not numbers, dont contain certain characters etc)). it also tells you it should return the sum of the arguments passed to the function.

note: technically the variables inside the parenthesis are parameters, not arguments since this is a function definition, but I called them arguments since thats what is mentioned in the challenge.
