Lesson 17 Using Functions

PART 1: WRITTING AND CALLING A FUNCTION

//Defining a function || Function definition

four parts of function definition

1. return type void || int || float etc.


2. the name of the function print || add || greetWithNames etc.
3. parameter list ()
4. body of the function {}

I.E

void foo ()........................ function header


{

//whatever statement you want executed

.......................................................

void foo()
{
cout << "Hellow , world!\n";

int main ()

{
// call our function

..............................................................
..............................................................
PART 2: FUNTIONS THAT CAN ACCEPT ARGUMENTS

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;

//They can accept arguments


// they require parameters

void foo (string s)


{
cout << "Hello, " << s << "\n";

int main()
{
// call the function and pass it a string "argument"
// a literal or a variable can be an argument

foo("Marvin"); // "Marvin" gets assigned to s in the function above

cin.get();//pause the program


}

//Another example would be one that accepts two or more integers as its only
parameters

void foo(int x, int y)


{
cout << (x + y) << endl;
}

int main ()
{
// call foo and passs it two integer arguments
foo (8, 3);// 8 will be passed to x and 3 to y and therefore execute the code
in the body function as addition
}

RANDOM GENERATOR GAME

Libraries to include
#include <ctime>
#include <cstdlib>

//declare variables (including error, absError, randomisedNum, bestGuess, guess);

//Generate random number using srand(time(0)); function


//include a rand() function, initialized to randomisedNum and its parameters

//input user guess and store it

//initialize error to the max parameter and bestGuess to the lowest parameter

//Repeatedly input guesses until a sentinel is entered using a while loop


//follow the while loop with keeping track of bestGuess and smallest error by
initializing absError to an abs() function that has (randomizedNum - guess) as
parameters
//an if statement with (absError < error) as argument
//the body of the if statement must initialize error to absError and bestGuess to
guess
//display the difference and the randomizedNum

//input the next guess and store it


// display the result
