CALL BY VALUE AND REFERENCE--

A function can be called by two types













1) Call By Value:-
 

  • when an original value is not modified , is known as call by value.
  • In call by value the actual parameter(the parameter passed to function) is copied into the formal parameter(parameter receive by function).
  • in this the value of each variable in calling function is copied into the corresponding dummy variable of the called function.
  • the changes made to the dummy variable have no effect on the actual variable.
  • Example:-
     















2)Call By Reference:- 
  • when an original value is modified, is known as call by reference.in this a reference is used , denoted by &(symbol).
  • we can use either pointer or reference for call by reference
  • in this the address of the variable is passed into the function called by actual parameter.
  • in this the memory allocation is same for both actual and formal arguments.
  • Example:-

Type casting

type casting or type conversion  allows us to convert one data types into another.for type casting cast operator is required. Syntax:--      (type)expression or value; Example:       int f =9/4; //without type casting       o/p=2       float f=(float)9/4;  //with type casting       o/p=2.3 Type conversion are of two types: 1)Implicit Type Conversion:-  it is also known as automatic type conversion.When the type conversion is performed automatically by the compiler,such type of conversion is known as implicit type conversion. 2)Explicit Type Conversion:-  the type conversion performed by the programmer is known as explicit type conversion.which is done by cast operator as above mentioned.

Introduction to C

About C:- C is a high-level language . It was initially first developed by D ennis Ritchie in 1972. It was developed to overcome the limitation of previous language such as B,BCPL etc. It was developed for Unix operating System It inherits many features of previous language Features/Advantage:- Simple :- because it provide data types, library function etc. Machine Independent or Portable:- because it can be executed on different machine Procedural language:- Instruction in c program are executed step by step Structured programming language:- break the problem into parts It provide dynamic memory allocation , pointers etc. Speed:-It is faster than another programming language like java, python etc. Disadvantage of C:- It does not support oops concept in which inheritance, polymorphism, encapsulation etc. come. It does not support namespace concept It does not support constructor and destructor There is lack of excepti...

UNION

Definition:-                 Union is similar to structure, except it allows you to define the variable that share storage spaces.Defining a means creating a new data types. How use union:-                       when we create a structure by using struct keyword, now making a union we just replace the keyword struct with the keyword union , other syntax will be same. Difference  between Structure  and Union:- the only difference between them is in memory. NOTE:-  union is used for low level programming but structure mostly used for high level programming.
