Good day,

please note that ImageJ-plugins and -macros differ in many aspects.

Plugins are always written in Java. Here is a good introduction:
<https://imagingbook.files.wordpress.com/2013/06/tutorial171.pdf>

The ImageJ-macro language is mainly meant for rapid prototyping, i.e. for
calling plugins in a desired order. Here is a description
<https://imagej.nih.gov/ij/developer/macro/macros.html>
and here is a commented list of built-in functions.

To start with writing plugins or macros you should consider using the
macro-recorder functionality of ImageJ. (Select either macro or java.)
