Call by reference means calling a function using a reference to a variable or a pointer. You call a function by passing refrences to a variable.
For eg: void x(int &a) {
a=2;
}
void main()
{
int s=3;
x(s);
}
OR
void a(int &c) { c=5;}void main(){ int *p; *p=2a(*p);}
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; }
You can use "string" class in C++ for string operations or you may use c style string functions as well. #include <string> String class in C++ provides all basic function to operate on strings. you may details descriptin at http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/string/string/
just as you do it in C.
A typedef is a compiler macro. A reference is a pointer, usually implemented with transparent syntax. They have no relationship between each other.
...a function call.
A reference variable in C++ is a formal parameter of a function call that automatically dereferences itself, as if it were a pointer, into a reference to the original value in the calling routine. You declare the reference type in the function declaration and prototype, but the compiler automatically adds the reference (&) operator on call, and the dereference (*) operator on use.
In C++ (C Plus Plus), when you call by reference, you are directly accessing the data of the referenced object. When you pass an object to a function by reference, any and all alterations to the object made within the function carry through to the actual object.

Example: void foo( MyClass& object ){} // function with call by reference signature MyClass* p = new MyClass(); // instantiate a pointer to MyClass foo( *p ); // call by reference using the pointer

Very easily: there is no call-by-reference in C.
void swap(int& a, int& b ) { a^=b^=a^=b; }
Pass by value, constant value, reference and constant reference. Pass by value is the default in C++ (pass by reference is the default in Java).
Of course.
The ++ in C++ refers to the postfix increment operator (operator++()). It's literal meaning is "the successor to C", in reference to the C language upon which the C++ language is based.
How the turbo c plus plus use what in the computer.
