Absolutely. Indeed, any function (user-defined or built-in) that does not return a value is not really a function, it is simply a procedure.
True - A C++ constructor cannot return a value.
Void means there is no data type. So if you have a void function it does not return a value (and attempting to do so will cause an error) whereas a non-void function (ex. int, long, String, bool, etc) will return a value of that type.
A function's signature is defined by the number and type of parameters. Functions with the same signature cannot differ by return type alone. Use of the const keyword also constitutes part of the signature.
clear() is an inbuilt function defined in c++ defined in conio.h. It is used for clearing the console. The systax is:clear();
Classes cannot return values, only functions can return values. But you cannot return a function from a function, you can only return a function pointer -- a pointer variable holding the address of the function you wish to return. All possible return values must be of the same type, therefore all function signatures and return types must be exactly the same -- only the name of the functions can differ.

By returning a value. Or using type 'void'.
A procedure is simply a function in C++, therefore you define procedures just as you would any function. In some languages, a procedure is not a function as such, insofar as there is no return type. The C++ equivalent would therefore be a function that returns void.
void is used by functions that do not return a value. For example: // This function returns an integer, which you can use in other functions int addTwoNumbers(int a, int b) { return(a + b); } // This function does not return a value, so we declare it as a void void printSum(int a, int b) { cout << a << " + " << b << " = " << addTwoNumbers(a, b) << endl; // Note that attempting to return a value here will cause an error. }
The "plus sign" (+) is an operator that, by default, takes the left and right operands as parameters, and returns the sum of both operands as the return value.
Void means there is no data type. So if you have a void function it does not return a value (and attempting to do so will cause an error) whereas a non-void function (ex. int, long, String, bool, etc) will return a value of that type.
The C++ standard library contains all the pre-defined functions.
A function's signature is defined by the number and type of parameters. Functions with the same signature cannot differ by return type alone. Use of the const keyword also constitutes part of the signature.
You cannot because the function is not well-defined. There is no equality symbol, the function In(2x) is not defined.

No. There is no default return type for functions, it must be explicitly specified in both the function declaration and in the definition. To specify no return value, return void. To return a variant type, return void* (pointer to void). Otherwise return the exact type.
