No. A branch is akin to a goto statement in procedural programming. The code branches off to a new code segment, never to return. A function call is akin to a subroutine in structured programming. When the subroutine is finished, control is returned to the instruction immediately following the function call, just as if the function's code were inline expanded at the call site.
...a function call.
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);}
Caller and callee relate to function calls. The caller is the code point that made the call to a function while the function is the callee. The callee returns control to the caller via the return address that was pushed onto the stack by the caller. void foo() {} int main() { foo(); } In the minimal example above, the main function is the caller while the foo function is the callee.
There is no such thing. You probably meant the main function. The main function is the only function that is required as it serves as the entry point of the program.
It depends on the particular library implementation. It is not a C++ specific question. As far as C++ is concerned, it is just a function call, just like a call to printf or even exit is a function call. One could be a call to wait for an event. One could be a call to sleep for a specified period of time. One could be a call to burn CPU cycles for a specified period of time. Again, it all depends on the library implementation, and you need to read the documentation for your library to answer this one.

It is DOS-specific function in TurboC to call an interrupt. See the built-in help.
$48x + 5y" is an expression. It is not a function and so cannot be written as a function.
Just as pointers can point to variables, pointers can also point to functions. Thus you can pass function pointers to functions. In so doing, you can alter the behaviour of the function by having it call dynamically call arbitrary functions rather than just preset functions.
Yes it is a function. In standard form it is y=x-4.
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.
It is: y = -2/3x+4 in slope intercept form
Y = 2X + 8 is a linear function of the form, Y = mX + c. A line.
y = -x-2
y=3x+12
y(x) = (4 - x)/4.
