Hi Julian,
Yup, by the naming.
However, this way of programming seems to promote deeply nested
structures, so it's more suited to this sort of dsp code (declared in one
block, with anonymous rather than named functions) - and probably
functional reactive graphics, but I haven't tried it with that stuff yet.
