Lab Manual 12

The lab manual for Spring 2020 at UMT Lahore focuses on understanding functions in C++, including user-defined and built-in functions. It outlines objectives, provides examples of function declarations and definitions, and includes tasks for students to apply their knowledge, such as calculating the area of a triangle and creating a mini calculator. The manual is designed to enhance students' programming skills through practical exercises.

Lab Manual (Lab 12)

Session: Spring 2020

School of Systems and Technology


UMT Lahore Pakistan

LAB INSTRUCTOR: AYESHA MAJID ALI


Contact: [email protected] Room #: 504 Last cabin 4th floor SST
Objective
The objective of the lab is to understand the concept of functions.

Functions
Objectives

● To introduce the concept of int and void functions


● To work with void functions that have no parameters
● To introduce and work with void functions that have parameters
● To introduce the concept of functions that return a value

TYPES OF FUNCTION:

1. User Defined Functions


2. Built in Functions

What are built in functions?

Built-in functions are also called library functions. These are the functions that are provided by C++ and
we need not write them ourselves. We can directly use these functions in our code.
Example:
pow(2,5)

Mean 2^5=32

USER DEFINED FUNCTIONS:

The functions that we declare and write in our programs are user-defined functions.

HOW TO DECLARE A FUNTCION?


METHOD 1:
You can declare a function in the beginning and can define it after int main() function.

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;

void message(); //Function declaration

int main()
{
message() ; // Function Call
cout<< "\n this is main function" ;
message();
}
void message( ) // Function definition
{
cout<<"\n this is message function" ;
}

Output:

METHOD 2:
You can declare a function and you can also define it with its declaration.
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;

void message()
{
cout<<"\n this is message function" ;
} //Function declaration and definition

int main()
{
message() ; // Function Call
cout<< "\n this is main function" ;
}
Output:

FUNCTION WITH NO RETURN TYPE:

Void Function:

Example:

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

void printmessage ()
{
cout << "I'm a function!";
}

int main ()
{
printmessage ();
}

Is same as the following program

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

void printmessage (void)


{
cout << "I'm a function!";
}

int main ()
{
printmessage ();
}

Output:

FUNCTIONS WITH RETURN TYPE:

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int mul ()
{
int a=2*3;
return a;
}

int main ()
{
int m=mul ();
cout<<"The product is product:"<<m<<endl;
}

Find the error in the following code.

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

void add ()
{
int a=2+3;
return a;
}

int main ()
{
int sum=add ();
cout<<"The sum is sum:"<<sum<<endl;
}

Lab Tasks
.
Task 1

If the lengths of the sides of a triangle are denoted by a, b, and c, then area of triangle is given by
area = √ 2
S (S−a)(S−b)(S−c ¿)¿ where, S = ( a + b + c ) / 2. Write a program which includes a
function to find the sides of triangle.

Task 2

(Even or Odd) Write a program that inputs an integer value and passes them to function even, which uses
the remainder operator to determine if an integer is even.

Task 3:

Write a program to swap the values of two number using built in function.

Task 4:

Create a mini calculator using functions.
