Defining a Function

Explore how to define and implement functions in C by understanding return types, parameter declarations, and function prototypes. This lesson guides you through writing functions that improve code modularity and efficiency, enabling you to organize your programs clearly and call functions effectively.

We'll cover the following...

Structure of a function

A function is defined in the following way:

C
returnType functionName (param1Type param1Name, param2Type param2Name) {
   function_statement1;
   function_statement2;
