Group the following functions under appropriate headings, assuming that they are to form the
basis for a menu-driven word-processing system – the headings you choose will become the
menu titles, with the functions appearing under the appropriate one. You can choose as many
or as few menu headings as you wish. You may also alter the wordings of the functions slightly
if you wish.

Reason:
Some functions always seem to be grouped together because they perform different operations on the same object. For example the functions in “File” menu are grouped together because they perform different operations regarding file.
