Simple Function Definition and Call:
#include <stdio.h>
int greet(void)
{ printf("Hello, world!\n");
return 0; }
int main()
{ greet();
return 0; }
Function with Parameters and Return Value:
#include <stdio.h>
int add(int x, int y) {
return x + y;
}
int main() {
int a = 5, b = 3, sum;
sum = add(a, b);
printf("Sum of %d and %d is %d\n", a, b, sum);
return 0;
}
Function with Default Arguments (may not work in c):
#include <stdio.h>
int multiply(int x, int y = 1) {
return x * y;
}
int main() {
int a = 5;
printf("Product of %d and 1 is %d\n", a, multiply(a));
printf("Product of %d and 3 is %d\n", a, multiply(a, 3));
return 0;
}
Function with Variable Number of Arguments:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdarg.h>
int sum(int count, ...) {
va_list args; // variable argument list
int i, sum = 0;
va_start(args, count); // system function
for (i = 0; i < count; i++) {
sum += va_arg(args, int);
}
va_end(args);//system function
return sum;
}
int main()
{
int result;
result = sum(3, 10, 20, 30);
printf("Sum of 10, 20, and 30 is %d\n", result);
return 0;
}
Switching between functions
#include <stdio.h>
int add(int x, int y);
int sub(int x, int y);
int mul(int x, int y);
int div(int x, int y);
void main() {
int a = 6, b = 2, result,ch;
printf(" Accept choices for calculator : \n 1 for sum \n 2 for subtract \n 3 for multiplication
\n 4 for divison \n ");
scanf("%d",&ch);
if(ch==1)
{
result = add(a, b);
printf("Sum of %d and %d is %d\n", a, b, result);}
else if(ch==2)
{
result = sub(a, b);
printf("Minus of %d and %d is %d\n", a, b, result);}
else if(ch==3)
{
result = mul(a, b);
printf("Product of %d and %d is %d\n", a, b, result);}
else if(ch==4)
{
result = div(a, b);
printf("Quotient of %d and %d is %d\n", a, b, result);}
else
{printf("Wrong input");}
int add(int x, int y) {
return x + y;
}
int mul(int x, int y) {
return x * y;
}
int sub(int x, int y) {
return x - y;
}
int div(int x, int y) {
return x / y;
}
