Chapter 5 (Functions)


First look at the end of sections in Chapter 5. These have valuable
"test your knowledge" questions that are similar and useful in
preparation for this exam. The Liang website is also invaluable.

Some example questions. Remember that during the test you will need to
use good programming practices throughout. There may be question
'types' that are not listed below, but this is a good sample.  Again,
you should also go over the review problems in the book for the
chapters we have covered - as well as read any portions of the
chapters you may have missed. Some problems will likely come directly
from those as well.




Some sample questions: 


What is #include used for?

Name some functions in cmath.

Name two libraries used in #include.

What is a function prototype?

Give the function prototype for the following situation?

Give the function definition for the following situation?

-function basics (definition, prototype, location, calls, arguments)

Find all errors (run-time and compiler) in the following code.

at the end of its execution?
 (code would follow)
