FUNCTION
A function is a self contained block of codes or sub programs with a set of
statements that perform some specific task or coherent task when it is called.
It is something like to hiring a person to do some specific task like, every six
months servicing a bike and hand over to it.
Any ‘C’ program contain at least one function i.e main().
There are basically two types of function those are
1. Library function
2. User defined function
The user defined functions defined by the user according to its requirement
System defined function can’t be modified, it can only read and can be used.
These function are supplied with every C compiler
Source of these library function are pre complied and only object code get used by
the user by linking to the code by linker
Here in system defined function description:
Function definition : predefined, precompiled, stored in the library
63 *Under revision
, Function declaration : In header file with or function prototype.
Function call : By the programmer
User defined function
Syntax:-
Return type name of function (type 1 arg 1, type2 arg2, type3 arg3)
Return type function name argument list of the above syntax
So when user gets his own function three thing he has to know, these are.
Function declaration
Function definition
Function call
These three things are represented like
int function(int, int, int); /*function declaration*/
main() /* calling function*/
{
function(arg1,arg2,arg3);
}
int function(type 1 arg 1,type2 arg2,type3, arg3) /*function definition/*
{
Local variable declaration;
Statement;
Return value;
}
