Unit 6 FUNCTIONS
LAB ACTIVITIES:
(i) Write a program with a function that takes two int parameters, adds them
together, and then returns the sum.
Program:
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
int sumup(int a, int b);
int main()
{
int a , b,
cout << "Enter First int Parameter:"
cin >> a;
cout << “Enter Second int Parameter:";
cin >> b;
int sum = sumup(a, b);
cout << “Sum of both parameters is " << sum << endl;
}
int sumup(int a , int b)
{
return a+ b;
}
(i) Write a program with a function name "mean" to read in three integers from the
keyboard to find the arithmetic mean.
Program.
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
void mean(int a, int b, int c);
int main()
3
Unit 6 FUNCTIONS
{
Int a , b, c;
mean(a, b, c);
}
void mean(int a , int b, int c)
{
cout << “Enter three integers ";
cin >>a>>b>>c;
double means = (a + b + c) /3.0 ;
cout << "Arithmetic Mean is : " << means << endl;
}
(iii) Write a C++ program having a function name rectangle to read the length and
width of a rectangle from the keyboard and find the area of the rectangle. The
result should be returned to the main program for displaying on the screen.
Program:
#include<iostream>
using namespace std,
int area(int len, int wid);
int main()
{
int length, width, area of _rectangle;
cout << “"Enter length:”;
cin >> length;
cout << "Enter width: “;
cin >> width;
area_of_rectangle = area(length, width);
cout << "Area of the rectangle is: " << area_of_rectangle << endl;
}
int area(int len, int wid)
{
return len * wid;
}

Unit 6 FUNCTIONS
(iv) Write a C++ program having two function names area and perimeter to find the
area and perimeter of a square.
Program:
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
int area(int a),
int perimeter(int a);
int main()
{
int area_of_square, perimeter_of_square, a;
cout << “enter the Length of 3 Square: "
cin > a;
area_of_square = area(a);
cout << "Area of square is : " << area_of_square << endl;
perimeter of _square = perimeter(a);
cout << "Perimeter of square: " << perimeter_of_square << endl;
}
int area(int a)
{
return a*a;
}
int perimeter(int a)
{
return 4*a;
}
(v) Write a C+ + program to read a number from the keyboard and then pass it to a
function to determine whether it is prime or composite.
Program:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
char isPrime(int num);
5
Unit 6 FUNCTIONS
int main()
{
int num;
char flag;
cout<<"Enter any number (it should be positive integer) ";
cin>>num;
flag = isPrime(num);
if (flag==t)
cout<<num<<” is a prime number”;
else
cout<<num<<” is not a prime number, it is composite number”;
return 0;
}
char isPrime(int num)
{
char flag=t;
for(int i = 2; 1 <= num / 2; i++)
{
if(num % 1 == 0)
{
flag = f;
break;
}
}
return flag;
}
(vi) Write a C+ + program to get an integer number from keyboard in main program
and pass it as an argument to a function where it calculate and display the table.
Program:
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
void table(int a);
6
Unit 6 FUNCTIONS
int main()
{
int a=0;
cout<<"Enter Number:”;
cin»a;
table(a);
}
void table(int a)
{
cout << endl;
for (int i = 1; i <= 10; i++)
{
cout << a << " * << i << " =" <<a*i < endl;
}
cout << endl;
}
