(defun this-be-a-function ()
(interactive)
(message "This be an interactive function"))
The "(interactive)" in the second line makes it callable by name,
i.e. "M-x this-be-a-function" prints "This be an interactive function"
in the minibuffer.
The Introduction to Emacs Lisp and Elisp manuals are really helpful, and
easy to read.
