Chapter 16.2, Problem 16.9CP
Explanation of Solution
Method of writing a function template:
Before starting to write a function template, first create a regular function with proper parameter list and definition. Then, convert the regular function into a function template.
Steps involved for converting a function into a function template:
- Define a regular function.
- Test the regular function with sample data and debug the function whether it works properly or not.
- Once it is executed correctly, then convert into a template by adding template prefix with type parameter.
Example:
For example, consider the following function “multiply” is used to multiply the given values as follow as:
//Regular function
//d...

In C++
Write the definition of a void function that has two parameters: an array, and an integer parameter that specifies the number of elements in the array. The functions swaps the first and last elements of the array.
