a.
Passing parameters by value:
While passing the parameters by value, a copy of that parameter is made and it is passed to the function. The value of parameter is copied to another location of memory. The location of memory where original value is saved remains intact.
Passing parameters by reference:
While passing parameters by reference, the address of value at which it is stored in memory is passed to the function. The original value of parameter changes during execution of a function.

- Code using c++ 2. Solving a Person's Loneliness by CodeChum Admin It's been 1,245 years and our sole Person is getting lonelier each day. This Person definitely needs a partner! Thus, we need to update our Person's design to have a gender as well and there shall be male and female! Instructions: In the code editor, you are provided with the definition of a struct Person. This struct needs an integer value for its age. Furthermore, you are provided with a displayPerson() function which accepts a struct Person as its parameter. Your task is to first update the struct Person so that it can have a gender as well. For this program, we shall represent a gender with a single character: 'M' for male and 'F' for female. Then, create a Person, take in an integer user input and a character user input, and then set them as the Person's age and gender respectively. Finally, call the displayPerson() function and pass that Person you created. Input 1. The age of the Person 2.…arrow_forwardWhy would you use a formal parameter to get data into a function when you could use a symbolic constant instead? Explain.arrow_forwardExplain whether the statement is true or false? Elaborate. When a program that uses the constructor overloading is compiled, C++ compiler checks the number of parameters, their order and data types and marks them differently.arrow_forward
- Question Write a C++ program that follows the program requirements in the document provided Declare a struct called Circuit that includes three member variables: Resistor Capacitor Frequency Write a value returning function that includes the relevant parameters to calculate the capacitive impedance using Write a value returning function with the relevant parameters that calculates the magnitude of the reactance based on an object's resistor value and calculated impedance and returns the result. Note: Z = R-jXc Wnite a value returning function with the relevant parameters that caicuiases the angle of the reactance based on an object's resistor value and calculated impedance and returns the result. Note: Z = R-jX Complete you program by writing a main function and by adding any other selesant hnes of code. Declare two objects of the struct Circuit.
