# Combining compiled functions

In various cases, deploying a server that contains many compatible functions is important. By compatible, we mean that the functions will be used together, with outputs of some of them being used as inputs of some other ones, without decryption in the middle. It also encompasses the use of recursive functions.

To support this feature in Concrete, we have two ways:

* using the `composable` flag in the compilation, when there is a unique function. This option is described in [this document](/concrete/2.7-1/compilation/combining/composition.md)
* using the Concrete modules, when there are several functions, or when there is a unique function for which we want to more precisely detail how outputs are reused as further inputs. This functionality is described in [this document](/concrete/2.7-1/compilation/combining/composing_functions_with_modules.md)

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.zama.org/concrete/2.7-1/compilation/combining.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
