Why does my functions.php file look so different?

I'm using the same 2013 theme but my functions.php file has 552 lines of code and doesn't have the parts that mentioned in the videos. I'm very confused and unable to follow.

If you like to dig in a little deeper you can see the individual functions.php files of different versions. For instance the link to the files of the twentythirteen theme: https://themes.trac.wordpress.org/log/twentythirteen/

The official WordPress themes (Twentythirteen, Twentyfourteen, etc) go through updates, so it could be that your version is more updated that what you see in the videos, which is why there are more lines of code.

Hope this helps!
