Laboratory 4 Part 1 - Developing Programs Using Functions

This document provides instructions for Lab 5 on developing programs using functions in C++. Students are tasked with completing several programming exercises that involve defining and calling different types of functions, including functions with and without parameters passed by value and by reference. The exercises incrementally build up skills in writing functions to perform calculations like finding products, averages, areas, and perimeters. Students are required to develop a full program that implements multiple functions to complete these calculations.

SYNOPSIS & THEORY


A function is a group of statements that is executed when it is called from some point of
the program. In C++, a program is made of one or more functions. One and only one of
which must be named int main( ).
A function is an independent module that will be called to do specific task. Each function
has its own name. When that name is encountered in a program, the execution of the
program branches to the body of that function. When the function is finished, execution
returns to the area of the program code from which it was called, and the program
continues on to the next line of code.

Type of function;
Pre-defined (or Standard) Function
User-defined Function
Pre-defined (or Standard) Function
Example :mathematical functions in <cmath> (called cmath header file) are:
The power function, pow(x,y), The square root function, sqrt(x), The floor function, floor(x)
etc.
User-defined Function
It has three parts:
Function declaration - is done first with a prototype declaration.
Function definition - contains the code to complete the task.
Function call (or invocation) - to call function to perform its task.
To use this type of function, the programmer has to call (or invoke) the function. But the
function must first be declared and defined before it can be used.

Please refer to lecture slides for more details about the how to write function declaration,
function call and function definition.
This lab we will investigate some application C++ programming which is applying various
types of function in the program development process, include function with and without
parameter, with and without return value.

4.4 Program Development by using function


Program Development is multi-step process that requires you understand the problem,
design a solution, write the program, and test the program. In this lab, you require to
design a solution by implementing function technique.
Develop a program by implementing function to these following processes. Follow the
function name as given. The process of calculation must be executed in the function.
1. To find the product of 3 numbers. --- function name product
2. To find the average of 3 numbers in process 1. --- function name
average_of_numbers
3. To find the area of a circle. --- function name area_of_circle
4. To find the perimeter of a square. --- function name perimeter_of_square
Verify your result with your lecturer and write down your code in your report.
[40 marks]
