    2 functions at once

    Is it possible to execute 2 functions at once?
    If so how or what do I search for?

    It's possible, but only if you fork another process or use multiple threads.
    p.s. What the alphabet would look like without q and r.

    Well you can run multiple threads of execution if that's what you mean. Do a search on MSDN for threads or maybe _beginthread(). However you must realise that what this does in reality is cause windows to chop and change between the two threads, it's not technically doing two things at the same time.
