Function

A function is a block of code which only runs


when it is called.
A large program in C++ can be divided to many
subprogram.
C enables its programmers to break up a program
into segments commonly known as functions.
You can pass data, known as parameters, into a
function.
2
A function declaration tells the compiler about a
function's name, return type, and parameters. A
function definition provides the actual body of the
function.
The subprogram is called as a function.
Basically a job of function is to do something.
To perform any task, we can create function. A
function can be called many times. It provides
modularity and code reusability.
C/C++ program contain at least one function which
is main(). 3
Advantage of functions in C++
By using functions, we can avoid rewriting same logic/code again
and again in a program.
We can call C++ functions any number of times in a program and
from any place in a program.
We can track a large C program easily when it is divided into
multiple functions.
Code Reusability:- By creating functions in C++, you can call it
many times. So we don't need to write the same code again and
again.
Code optimization:-It makes the code optimized, we don't need to
write much code. use functions, you need to write the logic only
once and you can reuse it several times.

return_type function_name
( parameter list )
{ body of the function }

1. Library Functions: are the functions


which are declared in the C++ header files
such as ceil(x), cos(x), exp(x), etc.

2. User-defined functions: are the functions


which are created by the C++ programmer, so
that he/she can use it many times. It reduces
complexity of a big program and optimizes
the code. 5
To use function in the program we need to establish three
elements that are related to the program
Function Declaration:- C need to be declared before they are
need to used. For the function the declaration need to be
before the first call function.
Function Definition:- It is actual code for the function to
perform the specific task.
Function Call:- we use function call to access the function.
The program or function that calls the function is referred to
as calling program or calling function.

Simple function call
#include<isotream.h>
printf_msg(); // function declaration
void main() // Library function
{
print_msg(); //function call
}
print_msg() // function definition
{
cout<<“This is a module called printf message”;
}
7
#include<stdio.h>
void sum();
void main()
{
cout<<"\nGoing to calculate the sum of two numbers:";
sum();
}
void sum()
{
int a,b;
cout<<"\nEnter two numbers";
cin>>a>>b;
cout<<"The sum is :-”<<a+b;
}

8
Function without argument and with return value.
#include<iostream.h>
int sum();
void main()
{
int result;
cout"\nGoing to calculate the sum of two numbers:";

result = sum();
cout<<result;
}
int sum()
{
int a,b;
cout<<"\nEnter two numbers";
cin>>a>>b;
return a+b;
} 9
#include<stdio.h>
int even_odd(int); }
void main() int even_odd(int n)
{ {
int n,flag=0; if(n%2 == 0)
cout<<“\nGoing to check whether a number is even or odd"; {
cout<<"\nEnter the number: ”; return 1;
cin>>n; }
flag = even_odd(n); else
if(flag == 0) {
{ return 0;
cout<<“\nThe number is odd"; }
} }
else
{
cout<<“The number is even";
}
