   <emphasis>Functions</emphasis> provide another method of abstraction. For

   Here, <varname>makeVirtualHost</varname> is a function that takes a single
-  argument <literal>name</literal> and returns the configuration for a virtual
+  argument <literal>webroot</literal> and returns the configuration for a virtual
   host. That function is then called for several names to produce the list of
   virtual host configurations.

-  We can further improve on this by using the function <varname>map</varname>,
-  which applies another function to every element in a list:
-<programlisting>
-{
-  <xref linkend="opt-services.httpd.virtualHosts"/> =
-    let
-      makeVirtualHost = <replaceable>...</replaceable>;
-    in map makeVirtualHost
-      [ "example.org" "example.com" "example.gov" "example.nl" ];

-  (The function <literal>map</literal> is called a <emphasis>higher-order
-  function</emphasis> because it takes another function as an argument.)
- </para>

- <para>
-  What if you need more than one argument, for instance, if we want to use a
-  different <literal>documentRoot</literal> for each virtual host? Then we can
-  make <varname>makeVirtualHost</varname> a function that takes a
-  <emphasis>set</emphasis> as its argument, like this:
-<programlisting>
-{
-  <xref linkend="opt-services.httpd.virtualHosts"/> =
-    let
-      makeVirtualHost = { name, root }:
-        { hostName = name;
-          documentRoot = root;

-        { name = "example.gov"; root = "/sites/example.gov"; }
-        { name = "example.nl"; root = "/sites/example.nl"; }
-      ];
-}
-</programlisting>
-  But in this case (where every root is a subdirectory of
-  <filename>/sites</filename> named after the virtual host), it would have been
-  shorter to define <varname>makeVirtualHost</varname> as
-<programlisting>
-makeVirtualHost = name:
-  { hostName = name;
-    documentRoot = "/sites/${name}";
-    adminAddr = "alice@example.org";
-  };
-</programlisting>
-  Here, the construct <literal>${<replaceable>...</replaceable>}</literal>
-  allows the result of an expression to be spliced into a string.
