Line 46:
A function is made up of three parts: its return type, its name, and its arguments.
<lang C>int main(void) //This is the function "main," which takes no arguments and returns a 32-bit signed integer value.
int sum(int a,int b) //This is the function "sum," which takes two integer arguments and returns an integer.
void PlaySound(char songName) //This takes a character string as an argument and presumably sends a command to sound hardware.
//It returns no values. Functions that have a return value of "void" typically do some sort of procedure whose outcome does not need to be
//measured later.
Note that the variable names listed as arguments when declaring a function are just for convenience. They need not be declared nor defined, nor do they refer to any variables in your program that happen to have the same name. It's only when a function is actually <i>used</i> are the argument variables required to exist.
<lang C>int foo(int x){
