    the comments should be replace with what ever code is need to grab the variables from the function, and yes i did modify the function and test the program, it gave:

    116
    116
    Make sure you are actually passing by reference (i.e. prefacing variable names with '&').

    Code:
    void function(int &a, int &b)
    {
      a *= 2;
      b /= 4;
    }
    The word rap as it applies to music is the result of a peculiar phonological rule which has stripped the word of its initial voiceless velar stop.

    Post the code you have written so far.
    Well, there are a few things wrong with your code:

    1) It does not work.
    2) It does not work.
    3) It does not work.

    Hope this helps.

    Strange indeed. The following code works just as advertised:

    Code:
    void function(int &a, int &b)
    {
      a *= 2;
      b /= 4;
    }
    
    int main()
    {
      int a, b;
      a = 1;
      b = 16;
    
      function(a, b);
      // code to get variable values from function()
      cout << a << b <<endl;
    
      function(a, b);
      // code to get variable values from function()
      cout << a << b <<endl;
    
      return 0;
    }
    There must be some minor discrepancy somewhere.

    If you pass it by value, the output is:

    116
    116

    If you pass it by refrence, the output is:

    24
    41

    So I'm not sure what your're doing wrong...

    So does mine...Hey! I'm kinda getting use to being called FD9. Sounds alot cooler. Try copy & past. Make sure it's exactly the same code. That's all I can tell ya.
