Just ask SQL*Plus:
SQL> CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION f(p_in IN NUMBER) RETURN number
  2  BEGIN
  3  return p_in*2;
  4  END;
  5  /

Warning: Function created with compilation errors.

What does mean "Encountered the symbol "BEGIN" when expecting one of the following:"?

Alternatively check CREATE FUNCTION syntax and examples in SQL reference.
