<Aside type="note">
  The official smart contract language of TON Blockchain is [Tolk](/tolk/overview). FunC is now a **legacy** language, with its compiler no longer maintained.

  FunC pages will be moved down in the sidebar in mid-April 2026. Here is the preview of a possible future placement, right between "Blockchain foundations" and "Contribute" sections:

  <Image src="/resources/images/tmp-func-fift-light.png" darkSrc="/resources/images/tmp-func-fift-dark.png" alt="Preview of a possible future placement of FunC and Fift languages in the sidebar." width={294} height={190} noZoom={true} />

  Learn how to [migrate from FunC to Tolk](/tolk/from-func/tolk-vs-func).
</Aside>

FunC, or more specifically, the Fift assembler, reserves several function names with predefined [IDs](/languages/func/functions#method-id-specifier):

* [`recv_internal`](#receive-internal) and [`main`](#main) have `id = 0`
* [`recv_external`](#receive-external) has `id = -1`
* [`run_ticktock`](#run-ticktock) has `id = -2`
* [`split_prepare`](#split-prepare) has `id = -3`
* [`split_install`](#split-install) has `id = -4`

Every program must include a function with `id = 0`, meaning it must define either `recv_internal` or `main`, but **not** both.

#### Receive internal

The `recv_internal` function is invoked when a smart contract receives an inbound [internal message](/foundations/messages/internal).

Any of the following `recv_internal` declarations can be used:

```func theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light-default","dark":"dark-plus"},"languages":{"custom":["/resources/grammars/tolk.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/tlb.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/fift.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/tasm.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/func.tmLanguage.json"]}}
() recv_internal(int balance, int msg_value, cell in_msg_cell, slice in_msg_body)
() recv_internal(int msg_value, cell in_msg_cell, slice in_msg_body)
() recv_internal(cell in_msg_cell, slice in_msg_body)
() recv_internal(slice in_msg_body)
() recv_internal()
```

There,

* `balance` is the smart contract balance in nanotons after adding the amount `msg_value` in the inbound message. It is an integer.
* `msg_value` is the amount in nanotons included in the inbound message. It is an integer.
* `in_msg_cell` is the inbound message, given as a cell.
* `in_msg_body` is the inbound message body, equal to the body field in `in_msg_cell`. The body is given as a cell slice.

<Aside>
  Each time a contract receives a message, the [TVM initializes](/tvm/initialization) and pushes into the stack the following four pieces of data, in this order:

  * The balance of the contract.
  * The coins included in the inbound message.
  * The message itself as a cell.
  * The message body as a slice.

  This means that the message body slice is the value at the top of the stack, since it was pushed last.

  At the moment `recv_internal` executes, its arguments are assigned values from the stack as follows:

  ```func theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light-default","dark":"dark-plus"},"languages":{"custom":["/resources/grammars/tolk.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/tlb.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/fift.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/tasm.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/func.tmLanguage.json"]}}
  () recv_internal(arg_1, arg_2, ....., arg_n-1, arg_n)
  ;;                 |       |            |        |
  ;;                 |       |            |        value at the top of the stack
  ;;                 |       |            |
  ;;                 |       |            second value from the top of the stack
  ;;                 |       |
  ;;                 |       (n-1)-th value from the top of the stack
  ;;                 |
  ;;                 n-th value from the top of the stack
  ```

  This means that if, for example, you use the declaration:

  ```func theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light-default","dark":"dark-plus"},"languages":{"custom":["/resources/grammars/tolk.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/tlb.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/fift.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/tasm.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/func.tmLanguage.json"]}}
  () recv_internal(cell in_msg_cell, slice in_msg_body)
  ```

  `in_msg_body` will get assigned the value at the top of the stack (which corresponds to the message body slice), and `in_msg_cell` will receive the second value from the top of the stack (which corresponds to the message as a cell). The rest of values in the stack remain unassigned to variables during the execution of `recv_internal`, meaning that they will remain unused in the stack and will be dropped once the TVM finishes execution.

  The declarations of `recv_internal` with fewer arguments consume slightly less gas, because each unused value in the stack is automatically dropped from the stack once `recv_internal` finishes execution, without the need to spend gas by explicitly executing a DROP instruction, which is an alias of [`s0 POP`](/tvm/instructions#3-pop).
</Aside>

<Aside type="danger">
  The FunC compiler does not check if the `recv_internal` arguments will actually match the values in the stack. For example, the following declaration will compile, but leads to errors during contract execution, because variable `in_msg_body` will not hold a slice, but the contract's balance, which is an integer!

  ```func theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light-default","dark":"dark-plus"},"languages":{"custom":["/resources/grammars/tolk.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/tlb.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/fift.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/tasm.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/func.tmLanguage.json"]}}
  () recv_internal(slice in_msg_body, int msg_value, cell in_msg_cell, int balance)
  ```

  Be careful of accidentally permuting the arguments in `recv_internal`. Only use the five possible declarations listed previously for `recv_internal`.
</Aside>

#### Main

`main` is an alias for [`recv_internal`](#receive-internal).

If the intention of the code is to handle inbound internal messages, it is preferable to use `recv_internal` over `main`, since `recv_internal` states more clearly the intention of the code.

#### Receive external

The `recv_external` function handles inbound [external messages](/foundations/messages/external-in). It allows declarations similar to those for [`recv_internal`](#receive-internal):

```func theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light-default","dark":"dark-plus"},"languages":{"custom":["/resources/grammars/tolk.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/tlb.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/fift.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/tasm.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/func.tmLanguage.json"]}}
() recv_external(int balance, int msg_value, cell in_msg_cell, slice in_msg_body)
() recv_external(int msg_value, cell in_msg_cell, slice in_msg_body)
() recv_external(cell in_msg_cell, slice in_msg_body)
() recv_external(slice in_msg_body)
() recv_external()
```

The only difference is that `msg_value` is always `0`, since external messages cannot carry coins, as they are created outside the blockchain.

The behavior of the stack is identical to the behavior described for [`recv_internal`](#receive-internal).

#### Run ticktock

The `run_ticktock` triggers at inbound tick and tock messages. It allows the following possible declarations:

```func theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light-default","dark":"dark-plus"},"languages":{"custom":["/resources/grammars/tolk.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/tlb.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/fift.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/tasm.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/func.tmLanguage.json"]}}
() run_ticktock(int balance, int address, int is_tock)
() run_ticktock(int address, int is_tock)
() run_ticktock(int is_tock)
() run_ticktock()
```

There:

* `balance` is the smart contract balance in nanotons. It is an integer.
* `address` is the address of the current account inside the masterchain. It is an unsigned 256-bit integer.
* `is_tock` a flag that indicates if it is a tock message (`-1`) or a tick message (`0`).

The behavior of the stack is identical to the behavior described for [`recv_internal`](#receive-internal).

### Split prepare

The `split_prepare` triggers for inbound split prepare messages. Even though the `split_prepare` name is currently reserved, split prepare messages are currently not in use.

### Split install

The `split_install` triggers for inbound split install messages. Even though the `split_install` name is currently reserved, split install messages are currently unavailable.
