Uhhmm... what's the differnece? Most people who know those terms use

interchangably.
A formula is an expression like "=(4*3)+2" or "=A1+B1"...formulas begin
with an equal sign that designates them as a formula.
A function is a predefined procedure that returns a value based on
values (arguments or parameters) passed to it. Formulas can contain
functions.
This could be made a little clearer, but they are not synonymous.
IMO, this really isn't very important, perhaps a mention of it, but
functionally (no pun intended) I don't see a real difference. Is there one?
