Answer to Question #181424 in C++ for nabila

Question

A function has different forms such as function call ,declaration, definition .in your opinion which form of function is called prototype and why?

Answer 1

A function has different forms but according to my opinion the declaration of function is function prototype because it specifies about the return type,function name as well as the data types of the parameters that are passed to the function.

Syntax for function declaration

returntype function name(data type parameter1,data type parameter 2,......data type parameter n)
