Function in C - PowerPoint Presentation

Slide1

Function in CSlide2

What is function? Look the example…

#include<

stdio.h

>void main( ){int x,y;float w;char ch;scanf(“%d %d”,&x,&y);scanf(“%f ”,&w);scanf(“%c”,&ch);printf(“x=%d, y=%d\n w=%f \n ch=%c\n”, x,y,w,ch);}

#include<stdio.h>void fun( ){int x,y;float w;char ch;scanf(“%d %d”,&x,&y);scanf(“%f ”,&w);scanf(“%c”,&ch);printf(“x=%d, y=%d\n w=%f \n ch=%c\n”, x,y,w,ch);}void main( ){ fun( );}

Declaration function

Calling function nameSlide3

What is function? Look the example…

Declaration function

Calling function name

#include<stdio.h>void fun( );void main( ){ fun( );}void fun( ){int x,y;

float w;char ch;scanf(“%d %d”,&x,&y);scanf(“%f ”,&w);scanf(“%c”,&ch);printf(“x=%d, y=%d\n w=%f \n ch=%c\n”, x,y,w,ch);}prototype function Slide4

Syntax of function

Return type

function_name (parameters or arguments ){ statements (what is the function do);}Return type may be void or int or float or char or string…Parameters may be no parameter or take one or more variableSlide5

How to write a function?

From the previous examples we declare a function

not return any value

. So, we wrote a void before the name of function without ; after parantheces.Function name must be written with the standard rules to declare a variable.Because fun( ) function not return a value, when we call it in the main there is only one way. What is it?Eliminate return type. Then take the function name and putted in main followed by ;.In the previous example function didn’t have any parameter. Slide6

How to write a prototype function?

Take the first line of function followed by; without { and }

The declaration function must be written after the end of main function.

Like this: void FF( ); void main( ) { } void FF( ){}Slide7

Void function with parameter

When we declare a function with arguments

must

be care to take the same order of arguments when function was called.Why we use parameters?To transfer the value of variables from main or other functions to variables in another functions.(like a pipe)Slide8

continue

Let be rewrite the first program in these slides but by using parameters.

#include<

stdio.h>void fun( int a, int b, float c, char d){ printf(“x=%d, y=%d\n w=%f \n ch=%c\n”, a,b,c,d);}void main( ){ int x,y; float w;

char ch; scanf(“%d %d”,&x,&y); scanf(“%f ”,&w); scanf(“%c”,&ch); fun(x, y, w, ch);}Slide9

continue

Let be rewrite the first program in these slides but by using parameters and prototype.

#include<

stdio.h>void fun( int a, int b, float c, char d);void main( ){ int x,y; float w; char ch; scanf(“%d %

d”,&x,&y); scanf(“%f ”,&w); scanf(“%c”,&ch); fun(x, y, w, ch);}void fun( int a, int b, float c, char d){ printf(“x=%d, y=%d\n w=%f \n ch=%c\n”, a,b,c,d);}Slide10

example

Write a program by using function to add two numbers and print the result.

#include <

stdio.h>void SUM( ) { int a,b; a=2; b=4; printf(“sum= %d \n”, a+b);}void main( ){ SUM( ); }Slide11

example

Write a program by using function to add two numbers and print the result.

#include <

stdio.h>void SUM( ); void main( ){ SUM( ); }void SUM( ) { int a,b; a=2; b=4; printf(“sum= %d \n”, a+b);}Slide12

example

Write a program by using function to add two numbers and print the result.

#include <

stdio.h> void SUM(int x, int y) { printf(“sum= %d \n”, x+y);}void main( ){ int a,b; a=2; b=4; SUM(a,b); }Slide13

example

Write a program by using function to add two numbers and print the result.

#include <

stdio.h> void SUM(int x, int y) ;void main( ){ int a,b; a=2; b=4; SUM(a,b); } void SUM(int x, int y) { printf(“sum= %d \n”, x+y);}
