C++ Program to Swap two numbers using call by address

What are Functions ?

Function is a block of statements that performs some operations. All C++ programs have at least one function – function called “main()”. This function is entry-point of your program.

A function declaration tells the compiler about a function’s name, return type, and parameters. A function definition provides the actual body of the function.

Defining a Function : :

The general form of a C++ function definition is as follows:

return_type Function_Name( list of parameters )
{
//function’s body
}

• return_type : suggests what the function will return. It can be void, int, char, some pointer or even a class object.
• Function_Name : is the name of the function, using the function name it is called.
• Parameters : are variables to hold values of arguments passed while function is called. A function may or may not contain parameter list.
• Function body : is he part where the code statements are written.

SOURCE CODE : :

/* C++ Program to Swap two numbers using call by address  */

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;

void swap(int *,int *);

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;

void swap(int &,int &);

int main()
{
        int a,b;
        cout<<"Enter Value Of A :: ";
        cin>>a;
        cout<<"\nEnter Value of B :: ";

        cout<<"\nOutside Function After Swapping, Value of :: \n\tA = "<<a<<"\tB = "<<b<<"\n";
}

void swap(int *a,int *b)
{
        int c;
        c=*a;
        *a=*b;
        *b=c;
        cout<<"\nInside Function After Swapping, Value of :: \n\tA = "<<*a<<"\tB = "<<*b<<"\n";
}

OUTPUT : :

/* C++ Program to Swap two numbers using call by address  */

Enter Value Of A :: 3

Enter Value of B :: 7

Before Swapping, Value of ::
        A = 3   B = 7

Inside Function After Swapping, Value of ::
        A = 7   B = 3

Outside Function After Swapping, Value of ::
        A = 7   B = 3

Process returned 0
