In studying a user written command, and in the .ado file I see a call to a Mata function, something like
Code:
mata: functionname(arguments)

In the examples on the Statablog the Mata code is always seen.
So how does Stata know what the Mata functionname() does? What is the process to precompile this code?
Also, how does the programmer and Stata check that there is no name conflict and there is no other Mata function with the name functionname()?
