Chapter 16, Problem 29RQE
Explanation of Solution
Function template:
In C++, a function template is referred as a “generic” function, which can work with different data types.
- While writing a function template, a programmer should use a “type parameter” to denote a “generic” data type instead of using the actual parameter.
- The compiler generates the code, when it encounters a function call to a function template. This code will handle the particular data type which is used in the function call.
- The compiler indentifies the argument type and generates the code to work with those types.
Example:
For example consider the following function template for adding different data types values:
//include the required header files
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;
//template function
template <class T,class B>
//function definition of "add"
T add(T x,B y,T c)
{
return x+y+c ;
}

Template Specialization in c++ is used to write generic code. Template code is written once and use for any data type including user-defined data types.Example: sort() can be written and used to sort any data type items. Create a Template code that reads input from the user, user can enter any type of data like integer, double, float.sum() is the template method that can take any two types of data and add it and return the sum of the two numbers.Create a Template Specialization method to add two integer values only.If a specialized version is present, the compiler first checks with the specialized version and then the main template.
Sample Input and Output:Enter two integer Numbers: 55Enter two float Numbers: 3.53.1Enter two double Numbers: 3.68.6Sum of two integer Numbers: only integer10Sum of two float Numbers: 6.6Sum of two double Numbers: 12.2

Q3. Write a program which has a class template for determining the largest and the smallest number from a list of numbers. Use a constructor for input and appropriate data members and member functions in support of your answer
Q. ocaml, unlike most functional languages , does not allow functions to return structured values ?
- True
- False
Q. The Ocaml type signature val f : 'a - > ' a = <fun> indicates that function f has parameter and return value that can be any type , as long as the types of f's parameter and return value are the same.
- True
- False

- C++ Differentiate between template function and template class. How can we compute the roots of quadratic equation by using function template? Explain by examples.arrow_forwardTemplate parameter names among template definitions must be unique. T/Farrow_forwardc++ Here are struct data members: integer for the ID of a student character array for the name. The size of the array is 15 floating-point numbers for the GPA an integer for a student status Write the declaration of the struct, lines of code to dynamically allocate size of the struct defined previously, the user will be asked to enter the size of the array, and a function that receives an array of the struct, the length of the array and the student ID as parameters. It should return the name, GPA and student status if found. Make sure to address if not found.arrow_forward

- In C++ Write the definition of a void function that has two parameters: an array, and an integer parameter that specifies the number of elements in the array. The functions swaps the first and last elements of the array.arrow_forwardcreate a function template code that can support different datatypes based on the following:- int doubleValue (int x) { int result; result= 2 * x; return result; }arrow_forwardCreate a C++ Function Template named swap so that it has two parameters of the same type. A Template Function created from swap will exchange the values of these two parameters. Create a C++ Function Template named multiples so that it has three parameters sum, x, and n. The first two parameters will have the type represented by the function template type parameter WhatKind. n will always be int. The return type is void. All parameters are passed by value except for sum which is passed by reference. A Template Function created from multiples will compute... sum = 1 + x + 2x + 3x + ... + nx Create a C++ Class called Mathy that also contains these two functions and that is properly templatized. Write code in your main function to demonstrate that each function works well individually and when used from within the class using multiple types. Demonstrate that you achieve the same results using both the templatized class and functions.arrow_forward
- Code should be in C++ Absolute Value Template: Write a function template that accepts an argument and returns its absolute value. The absolute value of a number is its value with no sign. For example, the absolute value of -5 is 5, and the absolute value of 2 is 2. Test the template in a simple driver program. Also pls do not hard code the values! Give the user the option to properly enter the value as described, thank you!arrow_forwardI don't want static data members or member functions.arrow_forwardA class Student can have three member variables: name, age, and an array of grades of two exams marks [5]. The grades can be integers (0-100), doubles (0.0-100.00) and characters (A-F, where F denotes grades less than 50). Write a class template to accommodate all five types of grades. The class template must have two constructors (no-arg constructor, and aconstructor that takes 7 parameters: name, age and grades of 5 exams). Write a c++ function to read an object from console, and another function to print the object to the console. Implement the class template by creating three objects with three different types (int, double and char) of grades, and printing the objects on the console.arrow_forward
