Values that are sent to a function are called [a] (a.k.a. [b]).

arguments (a.k.a. actual parameters).

The ___ of a function is the set of statements that perform the functionâ s operation.

body

A function ___ is a statement that causes a function to execute.

call

Enclosing a group of statements inside a set of braces creates a(n) ___.

codeblock

In computer programming, ___ code is part of the source code of a program which can never be executed because there exists no control flow path to the code from the rest of the program.

dead or unreachable

___ arguments are passed to parameters automatically if no argument is provided in the function call.

default

A function ___ contains the statements that make up the function.

definition

___ is code that tests a function by simply calling it.

driver code

The order in which statements are executed in a program is referred to as the program's ___.

flow of execution

The list of parameters indicated in the function definition are called ___ parameters.

formal

A(n) ___ is a collection of statements that performs a specific task.

function

A(n) ___ is a programming construct that allows a programmer to associate a given set of instructions with a specific name.

function

A(n) ___ constant is a named constant that is available to every function in a program.

global

A(n) ___ variable is defined outside all functions and is accessible to all functions in its scope.

global

The very first line of a function is the function ___.

header

___ involves writing and testing small portions of a program repeatedly until the program is complete.

incremental developement

A(n) ___ is a collection of precompiled routines that a program can use.

library

A(n) ___ is a package of code that is meant to be reused by many programs.

library

A(n) ___ variable is defined inside a function and is not accessible outside the function.

local

Variables that are defined inside a function are called ___ variables.

local

Instead of writing one long function that contains all of the statements necessary to solve a problem, several small functions that each solve a specific part of the problem can be written. A program of this type is called a ___ program.

modular

Function ___ is a programming concept that allows programmers to define two or more functions with the same name as long as each of the functions has a unique signature.

overloading

A(n) ___ is a special variable that holds a value being passed into a function.

parameter

When a reference variable is used as a parameter, it is said that the\\[4pt] argument is ___.

passed by reference

When a copy of an argument is passed to a function, it is said to be ___.

passed by value

In programming, a function is a named section of a program that performs a specific task. In this sense, a function is a type of [a] or [b]. Some programming languages make a distinction between a function, which returns a value, and a procedure, which performs some operation but does not return a value.

procedure or subroutine

A function ___ eliminates the need to place a function definition before all calls to the function.

prototype

When used as parameters, ___ variables allow a function to access the parameter's original argument. Changes to the parameter are also made to the argument.

reference

A function can send a value to the part of the program that executed it. This value is called a ___ value.

return

Variables that are defined inside a function that remain in memory after the function has finished executing are called ___ variables.

static

___ local variables exist for the lifetime of the program, even though their scope is only the function in which they are defined.

static

A(n) ___ is a dummy function that is called instead of the actual function it represents. It usually displays a test message acknowledging that it was called, and nothing more.

stub

A(n) ___ function is a function does not return a value to the part of the program that executed it.

void
