Hi Lipsha,
void main()
{
int num1;
display(num1);
}
void display(int para1)
{
-----------
-----------
}
In This example:
-> num1 is actual definition or actual parameter.(Parameters used in Function declaration is called actual parameters.).
-> para1 is formal definition or formal parameters.(Parameters used in Function definition is called actual parameters.).
void main()
{
int num1;
display(num1);
}
void display(int para1)
{
-----------
-----------
}
In This example:
-> num1 is actual definition or actual parameter.(Parameters used in Function declaration is called actual parameters.).
-> para1 is formal definition or formal parameters.(Parameters used in Function definition is called actual parameters.).
