The
following C++ statement has a call to the function
|
|
|
Square in it:
|
|
|
cout << 27 squared is <<
Square(27);
|
|
|
|
The
function call consists of the symbols
|
|
|
Square(27)
|
|
|
and may also be called a function invocation.
|
|
|
|
The
computer temporarily puts the main function on hold
|
|
|
and
starts the Square function running.
|
|
|
|
When
the Square function has finished doing its work, the
|
|
computer
goes back to main and picks up where it left off.
