Modules are reusable codes that you can use throughout your application development.
A module can store public functions or group of functions that you can call when
needed, rather than to code it again and again, module also reduces development time 

and keeps your code area clean.

Follow the sample below to create a simple module.(The sample is a simple program

that uses module to show a message box)
