Chapter 6, Problem 1MC
This is a prewritten function that is built into a
- a. standard function
- b. library function
- c. custom function
- d. cafeteria function
Expert Solution & Answer
Program Description Answer
The prewritten function that is used to build into a programming language is a library function.
Hence, the correct answer is option “B”.
Explanation of Solution
Library Function:
- Many programming languages are come with a library functions which means the functions are already written for the languages. It is called library function.
- These functions are built into the programming languages and the programmer can call that functions whenever they want to access it.
- The library functions perform most of the tasks that the programmers normally want to perform so it makes easier for the programmer.
Explanation for incorrect options:
Standard Function:
The standard function is not a valid build-in function.
Hence, the option “A” is wrong.
Custom Function:
The custom function is not a valid build-in function.
Hence, the option “C” is wrong.
The cafeteria function is not a valid build-in function.
Cafeteria Function:
Hence, the option “D” is wrong.

In C/C++, True or False:
A function that changes the value of a variable passed by reference also changes the value of the original variable.
A variable's type helps define the amount of memory it takes to hold a value of that type.
