Textbook Question
Chapter 8, Problem 3PP
Give the function definition for the function with the following function
declaration. Embed your definition in a suitable test
| void getDouble(double& inputNumber); //Postcondition: inputNumber is given a value //that the user approves of. |
You can assume that the user types in the input in normal everyday notation, such as 23.789, and does not use e-notation to type in the number. Model your definition after the definition of the function getInt given in Display 8.3 so that your function reads the input as characters, edits the string of characters, and converts the resulting string to a number of type double. You will need to define a function like readAndClean that is more sophisticated than the one in Display 8.2, since it must cope with the decimal point. This is a fairly easy project. For a more difficult project, allow the user to enter the number in either the normal everyday notation, as discussed above, or in e-notation. Your function should decide whether or not the input is in e-notation by reading the input, not by asking the user whether she or he will use e-notation

Write a definition for a void-function that has two int value parameters and outputs to the screen the product of these arguments. Write a main function that asks the user for these two numbers, reads them in, calls your function, then terminates. c++
Write a program that contains a main function and a custom, void function named show_larger that takes two random integers as parameters. This function should display which integer is larger and by how much. The difference must be expressed as a positive number if the random integers differ. If the random integers are the same, show_larger should handle that, too. See example outputs. In the main function, generate two random integers both in the range from 1 to 5 inclusive, and call show_larger with the integers as arguments.
For this question you will design and implement a function that takes 5 arguments and produces 5 return values. This question is internally recognized as variant 0371. The 5 arguments must be of types int, int, bool, bool, and char (in that order), and they must be stored in parameter variables 'ham', 'bar', 'xyz', 'gzk', and 'foo', respectively. As a clarifying example, the second parameter - 'bar' - will be of type int.
The function you create must perform the operations list below, in the specified order and exactly as they are described here. You are NOT permitted to simplify the operations.
1. create a new variable named 'ukr' that stores the result of increasing the 'ham' parameter by 42
2. if the conjunction of the 'xyz' parameter and the 'gzk' parameter has a value of True, multiply the value of the 'ham' parameter by a value of 29 and store the result back in 'ham'
3. negate the value of the 'xyz' parameter and store the result back in 'xyz' 4. decrease the value of the 'ham'…

- Change this question to work using a function. decide what the name of the function of each should be, how many parameters are required and what value needs to be returned. You're no longer required to solve the problem - try to re-manage your code to be a function. In many jurisdictions a small deposit is added to drink containers to encourage people to recycle them.
