Revision as of 11:10, 26 March 2014
Time | Narration |
00.01 | Welcome to the spoken tutorial on Function calls in C and C++ |
00.07 | In this tutorial we will learn about type of function calls namely |
00.13 | call by value. |
00.14 | call by reference. |
00.16 | We will do this through an example. |
00.19 | To record this tutorial, I am using Ubuntu Operating system version 11.10 |
00.26 | gcc and g++ Compiler version 4.6.1 |
00.31 | Let us start with the introduction to functions call by value |
00.35 | It is a method of passing arguments to the function. |
00.40 | When we pass a variable by value it makes a copy of the variable. |
00.45 | Before passing to the function. |
00.48 | Changes made to the arguments inside the function will remain in the function. |
00.54 | It will not be affected outside the function. |
00.58 | Let us see a program on function call by value. |
01.02 | I have already typed the program on the editor. I will just open it. |
01.08 | Please note our filename is callbyval.c. |
01.13 | In this program we will calculate the cube of a number. Let me explain the code now. |
01.19 | This is our header file |
01.21 | Here we have function cube having an argument as int x. |
01.27 | In this function we calculate the cube of x and return the value of x. |
01.33 | This is our main function. |
01.36 | Here we give the value of n as 8. n is an integer variable |
01.43 | Then we call the function cube. |
01.45 | And print the value of n and the cube of n. |
01.49 | And this is our return statement. |
01.52 | Now let us execute the program. |
01.54 | open the terminal window by pressing Ctrl, Alt and T keys simultaneously on your keyboard. |
02.02 | To compile , type gcc space callbyval.c space hyphen o space val. Press Enter |
02.12 | Now type ./val (dot slash val).Press Enter |
02.16 | The output is displayed as Cube of 8 is 512. |
02.23 | Now we will see function call by reference. |
02.26 | Let us go back to our slides. |
02.29 | It is another method of passing arguments to the function. |
02.33 | This method copies the address of the argument instead of the value. |
02.39 | Changes made to the arguments inside a function can affect them outside. |
02.45 | In this we need to declare the arguments as pointer type. |
02.50 | Let us see an example on function call by reference. |
02.54 | Note that our filename is callbyref.c |
02.59 | This is our header file as stdio.h |
03.03 | Then we have function swap |
03.06 | This function will exchange the values of the variables. |
03.10 | Value of a will be stored in value of b and vice-versa. |
03.15 | You can see that the arguments passed in the function are pointer type. |
03.21 | Here we have declared an integer variable t. |
03.25 | First value of a is stored in t. |
03.28 | Then value of b is stored in a. |
03.32 | And then value of t is stored in b |
03.37 | Like this the values are exchanged. |
03.40 | This is our main function. |
03.42 | Here we have declared two integer variables as i and j . |
03.49 | Then we take the values of i and j as user inputs. |
03.53 | Ampersand i and Ampersand j will give the memory address of i and j. |
03.59 | First we print the values before swapping. |
04.04 | Then we call the function swap |
04.06 | And then we print the values after swapping. |
04.10 | And this is our return statement. |
04.13 | Now let us execute the program |
04.16 | Switch back to our terminal |
04.19 | To compile type gcc space callbyref dot c space hyphen o space ref. Press Enter |
04.29 | Now type dot slash ref. Press Enter |
04.33 | We see, enter the values I will enter as 6 and 4 |
04.40 | The output is displayed as,before swapping 6 and 4 |
04.44 | After swapping 4 and 6 |
04.48 | Now let us see how to execute the same program in C++ |
04.53 | I have the code, lets go through it. |
04.57 | This is the second program function callbyreference . |
05.01 | Note that our filename is callbyref.cpp |
05.06 | Let us go through the code |
05.08 | This is our header file as iostream |
05.12 | Here we are using the std namespace |
05.16 | The function declaration is same in C++. |
05.19 | In this we pass the arguments as ampersand x and ampersand y. |
05.25 | This will give the memory address of x and y. |
05.29 | Then we swap the values. |
05.32 | Rest of the code is similar to our C code. |
05.36 | The printf statement is replaced by cout and the scanf statement is replaced by cin |
05.44 | Now let us execute the program. Come back to our terminal |
05.48 | To compile type; g++ space callbyref.cpp space hyphen o space ref1, press Enter |
06.00 | Now Type dot slash ref1, Press Enter |
06.05 | Here it is displayed as: |
06.07 | Enter values of a and b |
06.10 | I will enter as 4 and 3 |
06.13 | The output is displayed |
06.15 | Before swapping a and b 4 and 3 |
06.19 | After swapping a and b 3 and 4 |
06.23 | This brings us to the end of this tutorial. |
06.26 | Let us go back to our slides. |
06.30 | Let us summarize, In this tutorial we learn't: |
06.32 | Function call by value. |
06.34 | And Function call by reference. |
06.37 | As an assignment |
06.38 | Write a similar program to calculate the cube of a number. |
06.42 | Using call by value in C++. |
