Functions

The document describes various functions available in LoadRunner for transaction monitoring, command line parsing, sending messages, string handling, and controlling script execution flow. Some of the key functions are lr_start_transaction and lr_end_transaction for marking transaction boundaries, lr_get_transaction_duration for getting the duration of a transaction, lr_error_message for sending error messages, lr_eval_string for parameter substitution, and lr_think_time for simulating user think times.
