You are correct, Erwin.  Making the code in the included file a function 
or a class decouples it from the rest of the logic.  This makes the code 
more robust, easier to maintain and, if coded correctly, reusable.

Definitely an advantage over just including a file which then depends on 
other variables outside of itself.
