Chapter 5.2, Problem 12STE
Program Plan Intro

void Functions:

  • A function must either return a single or no value.
  • A function where no value is returned is termed as “void” function.
  • The “void” function is been defined in same way as function that would return a value.
  • It implements only subtask for complete problem.
  • If a “void” function is called, formal parameters are substituted with arguments.
  • The statements in function body are executed.
  • The “return” statement specifies value that is been returned.

Call-by-Reference:

  • It is a method for substituting arguments.
  • The argument is substituted for formal parameter.
  • The function call arguments may be a variable.
  • This argument variable is substituted for formal parameter.
  • It is similar to copying of argument variables into function definition body in place of formal parameter.
  • The function body code is been executed once argument is substituted.
  • This code can change argument variable value.
  • The ampersand sign (&) is attached to end of type name in formal parameter list in both function declaration as well as function header definition.

Call-by-value:

  • It copies actual value of an argument into function’s formal parameter.
  • The changes made to parameter inside function have no effect on argument.
  • This technique is used in default in programs.
  • The code within a function could not alter arguments that are used for calling function.

Node.js, Express, and Nunjucks Templates?
CIT244 Program Project 3 Assignment As with any assigned program, do not wait until the last minute to start. Start early in the week the program is due so you can ask questions if you get stuck Node.js and Express and Nunjucks Templates We have gotten to the good stuff. There is a program similar to this assignment given as the last example in the lecture notes for the week that discusses node static files. This program will take more time that previous assignments. There are several examples you should study first, particularly the pizza order example program available in the examples programs folder for the week discussing static files. You should study and run the pizza order program before trying this program. The pseudo-company is called Sun or Fun, which offers cheap flights from Louisville to either Miami or Vegas. Here's a video of how it should work. NOTE: You will hear or see references to Handlebars in this video. We used to use Handlebars, but it will be Nunjucks that we…
