The distance between two points pA (XA,YA) and pB (XR YB) is calculated as follows Distance = (XA– XB) +(YA-YB) Write a function that accepts as parameters the four coordinates (float values) of two points pA(XA,YA) and pB (XB,YB) and returns as a result the distance between the two given points. In the function main: 1) Prompt the user to enter from the keyboard unknown number of quadruples (four float numbers), where the first two numbers represent the coordinates of the first point and the last two numbers represent the coordinates of the second point. 2) Calculate the distance between the two points by calling the above -developed function. 3) Print the coordinates of the two points and the distance between them separated by tab at the beginning of a new line. All values must be printed with 2 decimal places. 4) Repeat the previous steps until the user enters control+Z .

(Practice) For the following function headers, determine the number, type, and order (sequence) of values that should be passed to the function when it’s called and the data type of the value the function returns: a. int factorial(int n) b. double volts(int res, double induct, double cap) c. double power(int type, double induct, double cap) d. char flag(char type, float current, float time) e. int total(float amount, float rate) f. float roi(int a, int b, char c, char d, float e, float f) g. void getVal(int item, int iter, char decflag, char delim)
Mark the following statements as true or false: a. To use a predefined function in a program, you need to know only the name of the function and how to use it. (1) b. A value-returning function returns only one value. (2, 3) c. Parameters allow you to use different values each time the function is called. (2, 7, 9) d. When a return statement executes in a user-defined function, the function immediately exits. (3, 4) e. A value-returning function returns only integer values. (4) f. A variable name cannot be passed to a value parameter. (3, 6) g. If a C++ function does not use parameters, parentheses around the empty parameter list are still required. (2, 3, 6) h. In C + + , the names of the corresponding formal and actual parameters must be the same. (3, 4, 6) i. A function that changes the value of a reference parameter also changes the value of the actual parameter. (7) j. Whenever the value of a reference parameter changes, the value of the actual parameter changes. (7) k. In C++, function definitions can be nested; that is, the definition of one function can be enclosed in the body of another function. (9) l. Using global variables in a program is a better programming style than using local variables, because extra variables can be avoided. (10) m. In a program, global constants are as dangerous as global variables. (10) n. The memory for a static variable remains allocated between function calls. (11)
Write the definition of a function that takes as input two decimal numbers and returns first number to the power of the second number plus second number to the power of the first number. (4)
(Statics) A beam’s second moment of inertia, also known as its area moment of inertia, is used to determine its resistance to bending and deflection. For a rectangular beam (see Figure 6.6), the second moment of inertia is given by this formula: Ibh3/12 I is the second moment of inertia (m4). b is the base (m). h is the height (m). a. Using this formula, write a function called beamMoment() that accepts two double- precision numbers as parameters (one for the base and one for the height), calculates the corresponding second moment of inertia, and displays the result. b. Include the function written in Exercise 4a in a working program. Make sure your function is called from main(). Test the function by passing various data to it.
