  1. Function parameter is the information that we pass to a function that being called, in order the function has data to work with and, they are always initialized with a value provided by the caller of the function.

  2. Parameters are needed in order to interact dynamically with functions, as they allow us to write functions that can perform tasks and return results back to the caller without knowing what the specific inputs or outputs are ahead of time.

  1. A function parameter is a variable used in a function.
  2. By using both parameters and a return value, we can create functions that take data as input, do some calculations with it and return the value to the caller.

1. What is a function parameter?
A function parameter is a variable in a function that is always initialized with a value provided by the caller of the function.
2. Why do functions need parameters?
They arenā€™t mandatory, but these parameter inputs allow users to pass information into a function which then results in a specific output value.

1.) A variable used in a function.
2.) Functions donā€™t need parameters always, but with them it allows the function to receive data as an input, and return a value based on that data.

  1. What is a function parameter?
    A variable that is used inside a function

  2. Why do functions need parameters?
    Functions donā€™t need parameters, but itā€™s useful to make more options accessible.

  1. A function parameter is a variable used in a function.

  2. Parameters are not mandatory in functions as you can call a function with a void return type; however, functions need parameters in order to pass values from one function to another.

1 . A function parameter is a variable used in a function. Function parameters work almost identically to variables defined inside the function, but with one difference: they are always initialized with a value provided by the caller of the function.

Function parameters are defined in the function declaration by placing them in between the parenthesis after the function identifier, with multiple parameters being separated by commas.
2.Parameters are the variables needed in order for functions to have data to work with.

  1. What is a function parameter?
    A function parameter is a variable that is used within a function. A function parameter is initialized by the caller of the function.
  2. Why do functions need parameters?
    Functions need parameters as it allows us to build on the information that is given to the function.

A definition of a value passed to a function.
2. Why do functions need parameters?
To have data passed to function so they can operate on external data.

  1. A function parameter is a variable used in a function. e.g. int add(x,y) this function has two parameters, x and y.
  2. functions need parameters because it sets how many arguments the function can hold. These arguments are provided by the caller to the function when that function is called.
    e.g.
    int add(x,y);
    {
    return x+y;
    }
    int main();
    {
    std::cout<<add(7,8 )<<;
    return 0
    }

where 7 and 8 are the arguments for the parameters of function add()

1 - Function parameters are variables used inside of functions - these variables are always initialized with a value. These parameters are declared inside of the parenthesis of the function - if multiple parameters are used then they are separated using commas.
int add (int x, int y)
{
return x + y;
}
2 - Parameters are needed so that the program has data to work with to produce the desired value required by the caller of the function.
