Program Plan Intro

Function:

  • Function is a part or block of code.
  • These become the important tools to build a complicated program.
  • Functions are mostly used to decrease the code duplication.
  • These also make the programs easier to maintain and easily understandable.
  • Functions are available both in-built and are also defined by programmers.

b)

Explanation of Solution

Output to a function:

Local declarations are those that are kept in the memory of the computer; but, how exactly are they kept in memory? If reaching one's objective can be done without making use of local declarations, then doing so is a waste of time. Why bother using value parameters when you can just use references as your arguments in any function? How crucial are value parameters when it comes to the processing of programmed data?
Functions can be thought of as miniature (sub )programs inside other programs. Like any other program, we can think of functions as having inputand output to communicate with the main program.a) How does a program provide "input" to one of its functions?b) How does a function provide "output" to the program?
