This is the only possible way of parameter-passing in C language.
Very easily: there is no call-by-reference in C.
Yes.
When we call a function in C++ by passing the values as arguments, it is called call by value. e.g #include<iostream.h> #include<conio.h> int add(int,int); int main() { int a,b,c; cout<<"Enter numbers."; cin>>a>>b; c=add(a,b); cout<<"Sum : "<<c; return 0; } int add(int a,int b) { int c; c=a+b; return c; }
variable definition means to declare the variable with its value. for example:- int i=10; this statement is a combination of declaration of integer i and assign its value to it,so it is a definition statement Note: assigning a value is not essential.
A function is called within a function either called by value or called by reference.When a function is called by passing the values of one or more variables,then the value is copied to a new var of the function's own var of its scope.Ex:void main(){...........c=fun(a,b);...}fun(int c,int d){ int t;t=c+d;return(t);}
I guess you meant the following:'In C language, when you call a function,the parameters are passed by-value.'
Call By Value, the standard way of doing things in C and C++, is where a copy of an object is placed in the parameter stack. The called function can access and manipulate that copy at will, but it cannot change the original copy because it has no way of knowing where that original copy is located. Call By Reference, on the other hand, is where the address of an object is placed in the parameter stack. Using extra syntax, the * or the ->, the called function can access and manipulate the original copy at will.
By default, a copy of the argument's value is passed into the parameter variable. This is "call by value" semantics, and the called function can do whatever it wants with the parameter, but it cannot alter the original copy. Sometimes, in C and C++, you can pass the address of the value instead. This is "call by address" semantics, but the called function must be designed to handle it - in this case, the called function can alter the original value. (Actually, it is always "call by value" - what we call "call by address" is simply passing the value of the address, a subtle distinction which is important to understanding the language.)

C represents the speed of light. In a vacuum it is 299,792,458 meters per second. C is also the maximum speed at which anything in the universe can travel.
Call by value is where the argument value is copied to the formal parameter, which is then passed to the function. While the function is executing, it can see the copy of the argument, and it can modify it, if desired, but since it is a copy, it cannot modify the original argument.Call by reference is where the argument's address (or some kind of reference to it, see the clarification below) is copied to the formal parameter, which is then passed to the function. While the function is executing, it can see the original argument, and it can modify it, if desired.Note that, formally, C and C++ are always call by value. When we use so-called call by reference semantics, whether it is explicit like in C, or implicit like in C++, we are simply treating the address of the argument as the value that is copied, but when you get into the nitty gritty details of the calling sequence, it is always call by value.As a clarification, because terminology is critical here, what we do in C and C++ is actually call by value or call by address, not call by reference. The distinction is important when you get into managed heap languages like Java and .NET, where the formal parameter is actually a reference handle to some object in the heap, and not actually a value nor an address.
