first of all when you write a function as void it will return nothing but it can process reading and when you write a function using void it is usually pass by reference

and when you need to return something you are actulaay using pass by reference

I am a little confused with code I am looking at. My c++ book does not go into passing a structure to a function so I pulled out a c book which does. and I do not understand the prototype verses the actual function call. I will post the code below of the structure, the prototype and and function call and if someone can explain this I would be very appreciative: struct data { float amount; string fname;

Guys, I'm interested in how the compiler implements function calls, can anyone correct my understanding/point me towards some good articles. When a function is called, is the stack pointer incremented by the size of the variables declared in the called function, and then the function will know where these are in memory relative to the current stack pointer position. ALso how are variables returned, is that by a set position in the...

I have written the two associated base classes below (Digital_camera and Review) to manage digital camera and review objects. They are base classes for which other derived classes can be written to provide more detail. You'll notice that I've also declared the display functions as "virtual" to allow for polymorphism. I now need to write a function to display all the contents of an STL "deque" of pointers to Digital_camera objects. It needs...

The following code introduces a 'generic function pointer' p. When calling the pointed-to function via this p, one has to typecast p towards a pointer to the type of the pointed-to function. My question is how to do this if the pointed-to function is a K&R style declared function, like f. The best I could come up with is a typecast towards a pointer to a function with unspecified number and type of parameters (and appropriate return type),...

Hi, I have just written a simple program to get me started in C that calculates the number of days since your birthdate. One thing that confuses me about the program (even though it works) is how global variables and function returns work... For example, I have a global array "char datestring;" which is defined in the function speakdate. speakdate just converts a set of integers (date variables) to a string.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
