Title: Newbie that need some understanding void int
Post by: snowfiring on May 10, 2013, 05:47:27 am

Well here im using a basic prototype in a header file and the old function from the course im taking told me to use

Code

void WriteAnswer(int x);

I had originally used

Code

int WriteAnswer(int x);

and it had worked but then was told to use void but it never really explained the difference and im wondering why i would use void over int.

Please post your C/C++ programming questions on a website that supports programming in C or C++.

1. This is NOT a general programming board. "How do I write a program that....", "Can anybody teach me how to", "I have this homework", "My program doesn't run and I don't have the slightest idea of why because I'm a C++ newcomer", "What is a compiler", "What does gcc do" is the kind of questions that is FORBIDDEN to ask.
