Thread: How to execute a top priority function?

I'm still an amateur.
Is it possible to write a program such that it will automatically execute the function in queue base on their priority even if user programmed it randomly?

Code:

function1(){ very_important;  }
function2(){ important; }
function3(){ less_important; }

int main() {   // Programmed by user
    function3;
    function1; 
    function2;

//Output: Program will execute function1, 2 and lastly 3. 
}

Not in the way you've described it, no. The whole point of programming is to do it systematically. If a statement calling function3() precedes a statement calling function1() - within the same block - then function3() is called first.

Adak has mentioned a way to achieve a comparable effect. However, that requires the programmer to deliberately and systematically set up a scheme by which functions are inserted into a queue, and that queue is sorted so the "highest priority" function in that queue is retrieved and executed first. It is not done by programming "randomly".
