Thread: Homework guidence, very important

That's one hell of a poorly worded question Personally I think the author needs a lesson in how to write proper assignments

Anyways, here's my guess (and that's all it is):

- Write a function that has two parameters, using pass by reference.
[<--SNIP-->]
Nah, I give up. If you're simply adding 2 to each of the numbers, that's too easy, but if you multiply them together where does the result go? Is it passed back in the return from the function? The requirements are so unclear... sorry I haven't been any help at all

well heres what it is if i multiply: Hope it helps to see where shes going.

Code:

int multiply(int &val1, double &val2);

int main()
{
int value;
double value2;

cout<<"Enter integer: ";
cin>>value;

cout<<"Enter double: ";
cin>>value2;

cout<<multiply(value,value2);

return 0;
}


int multiply(int &val1, double &val2)
{
double newval;

newval = val1 * val2;

return newval;
}

Are you sure about using int as the return type ? I mean, what is newval anyway?
