Is 'now' an adjective that modifies the noun 'function'
or is the words 'Now function' something else.
The word 'now' to me isnt a descriptive type of word and I know that adjectives are descriptive types of word.
So what is now and what is function.
Im confused.

As it is used there, "now" is a noun, because it names something. One could say that it forms a compound noun [noun - noun] with "function" or that it is a noun used as an adjective to describe which function. One could also call that a compound noun [adjective - noun]. It is the same either way.
When it is a noun and when is it an adjective
