arguments
The value of a default argument must be a ______.
constant
______ arguments are passed to parameters automatically if no argument is provided in the function call.
default
Either a functions ______ or its ______ must precede all calls to the function.
definition, prototype

exit
______ variables are defined outside all functions and are accessible to any function within their scope.
global
______ variables provide an easy way to share large amounts of data among all the functions in a program.
global

header

last

local
If a function had a local variable with the same name as a global variable, only the ______ variable can be seen by the function.
local
Two or more functions may have the same name, as long as their ______ are different.
parameter lists

reference
When used as parameters, ______ variables allow a function to access the parameters original argument.
reference

return
______ local variables retian their value between function calls.
static

value
