1. Definition
What is function?
Independent program module that is specially written
to implement the requirement of the function
Construct a program from smaller pieces or
components.
Each piece more manageable than the original
program
To organize the program
Reduce the program size

2. Element in Function
There are 3 elements in function:
2.1 Function declaration syntax
• To declare the function
• <function type> <function name> (<parameter type>);
• Eg: int add (int a , int b)
2. Function call syntax
• To call the function from main function
• Can be used in main function, other function or itself.
• <function name> (<parameter list>);
• Eg: add (a , b);
3. Function definition syntax
• Can be define as function body
• <function type> <function name> (<parameter type and list>)
{
body of function
}
• Eg:
int add (int a , int b)
{
statement of add function
}

3. Function categories
The categories of function divided into 4:
1. Function with no argument and no return value
2. Function with argument and no return value
3. Function with no argument and return value
4. Function with argument and return value
5
3.1 Function with no argument and no return value
Function:
not receive any argument from main()
not return any value to the main()
No return value
6
3.2 Function with argument and no return value
Function:
receive argument from the main()
not return any value to the main()
argument
No return value
7
3.3 Function with no argument and return value
Function:
not receive any argument from the main()
but return the value to the main()
value
8
3.4 Function with argument and return value
Function:
receive argument from the main()
return the value back to the main()
argument
value

} }

4. Function calls
Two ways to call the function:
1. Call by value
• Copies argument value to the function
• Only pass the value
2. Call by reference
• Call by reference
• Pass the address of the value
• Value change in function will change value in the main()

Example: please predict output on the screen for both.
