Starting Out with C++, 3rd Edition
6.1 Focus on Software Engineering: Breaking Up Your Programs
• Programs may be broken up into many manageable functions.
3
Starting Out with C++, 3rd Edition
6.2 Defining and Calling Functions
• A function call is a statement that causes a function to execute. A function definition contains the statements that make up the function.
• The line in the definition that reads void main(void) is called the function header.

6.3 Function Prototypes
• A function prototype eliminates the need to place a function definition before all calls to the function.
• Here is a prototype for the displayMessage function in Program 6-1
void displayMessage(void);

Starting Out with C++, 3rd Edition
Program 6-5// This program has three functions: main, first, and second.
#include <iostream.h>

6.4 Sending Information Into a Function
• When a function is called, the program may send values (arguments) into the function.
• Arguments are passed into parameters.
void displayValue(int num){
cout << “The value is “ << num << endl;}

Program 6-6 // This program demonstrates a function with a parameter.

6.5 Changing the value of a Parameter
• When an argument is passed into a parameter, only a copy of the argument’s value is passed. Changes to the parameter do not affect the original argument. This is called “passed by value.”
36
Starting Out with C++, 3rd Edition
Program 6-9// This program demonstrates that changes to a function parameter// have no effect on the original argument.#include <iostream.h>
// Function Prototypevoid changeThem(int, float);
void main(void){
int whole = 12;float real = 3.5;
cout << "In main the value of whole is " << whole << endl;cout << "and the value of real is " << real << endl;changeThem(whole, real); // Call changeThem with 2 argumentscout << "Now back in main again, the value of ";cout << "whole is " << whole << endl; cout << "and the value of real is " << real << endl;

//**************************************************************
// Definition of function changeThem. *
// It uses i, an int parameter, and f, a float. The values of *
// i and f are changed and then displayed. *
//**************************************************************

{
i = 100;
f = 27.5;
cout << "In changeThem the value of i is changed to ";
cout << i << endl;
cout << "and the value of f is changed to " << f << endl;
}

Be Careful With Global Variables
• It is tempting to make all your variables global. But don’t do it!
• Using global variables can cause problems.– It is harder to debug a program that uses global
variables
90
Starting Out with C++, 3rd Edition
6.11 Static Local Variables
• If a function is called more than once in a program, the values stored in the function’s local variables do not persist between function calls.
• To get a variable to keep it’s value even after the function ends, you must create static variables

6.12 Default Arguments
• Default arguments are passed to parameters automatically if no argument is provided in the function call.
• A function’s default arguments should be assigned in the earliest occurrence of the function name. This will usually mean the function prototype.

Default Argument Summary
• The value of a default argument must be a constant (either a literal value of a named constant).
• When an argument is left out of a function call (because it has a default value), all the arguments that come after it must be left out too.
• When a function has a mixture of parameters both with and without default arguments, the parameters with default arguments must be declared last.
104
Starting Out with C++, 3rd Edition
6.13 Using Reference Variables as Parameters
• When used as parameters, reference variables allow a function to access the parameter’s original argument, changes to the parameter are also made to the argument.
105
Starting Out with C++, 3rd Edition
Example:
void doubleNum(int &refVar)
{
refVar *= 2;
}
// The variable refVar is called
// “a reference to an int”

Reference Argument Warning
• Don’t get carried away with using reference variables as function parameters. Any time you allow a function to alter a variable that’s outside the function, you are creating potential debugging problems. Reference variables should only be used as parameters when the situation demands them.

6.16 Stubs and Drivers
• Stubs and drivers are very helpful tools for testing and debugging programs that use functions.
• A stub is a dummy function that is called instead of the actual function it represents.
• A driver is a program that tests a function by simply calling it.
