   And I apologize for my mistake.

No worries; i'm glad you persisted towards this understanding.

   As you said, I didn't evaluate the newly defined function properly.
   I did C-x, C-e, which I found somewhere on the Internet.
   When I did C-M-x, everything worked like a charm!

‘C-x C-e’ works fine if you place the cursor after the form you want to
evaluate.  ‘C-M-x’ is more suitable when you are in the middle of a defun,
which is often the case when experimenting in *scratch*.

To avoid Internet-induced confusion, you can find this kind of information
directly from Emacs.  Try:

  C-h k C-h k
  C-h k C-x C-e
  C-h k C-M-x

(This way, if there is any remaining confusion, you can tell the Emacs
maintainers about it and Emacs will improve as a result.  Try THAT with the
Internet!  :-D)
