Function Definition

Function definition consists of its declaration and a function body. The function
body is technically a block – a sequence of local definitions and statements
enclosed within braces
the function, i.e. they have function scope.
The function itself can be defined only within the file scope. This means that func-
tion declarations cannot be nested.
To return the function result, use the
functions of
return
Here is a sample function definition:
/* function max returns greater one of its 2 arguments: */
int max(int x, int y) {
return (x>=y) ? x : y;
}
Here is a sample function which depends on side effects rather than return value:
/* function converts Descartes coordinates (x,y)
#include <math.h>
void polar(double x, double y, double *r, double *fi) {
*r = sqrt(x * x + y * y);
*fi = (x == 0 && y == 0) ? 0 : atan2(y, x);
return; /* this line can be omitted */
}
