How to declare a fallback function? [duplicate]

Question

Simple question but I couldn’t find the answer in the documentation.

How do I declare a fallback function in my contract ?

@Ismael it doesn’t describe how to declare such function but explain what it does. — user2284570, Commented May 27, 2018 at 19:52
The top (only) answer states, with reference to the relevant documentation: "If the contract is meant to receive Ether with simple transfers, you should implement the fallback function as: function() payable { }". — Richard Horrocks, Commented May 27, 2018 at 20:45
Documentation is here: solidity.readthedocs.io/en/latest/… — Richard Horrocks, Commented May 27, 2018 at 20:47

The payable keyword allows the function to receive ether.
