CODE:

//include the required libraries here
void main()
{
int input01, input02, result;

//give some inputs, but you can make it this C program interactive
input01 = 25;
input02 = 10;

result = multiply(input01,input02);    //subroutine call

printf(”Multiplication of %d and %d is %d”,input01,input02,result);
}

/* subroutine definition block */
int multiply(int x, int y)
{
return x*y;
}

OUTPUT:

Multiplication of 25 and 10 is 250

When execution starts and encounters the statement ‘result = multiply(input01,input02);‘, execution goes to the function or subroutine call. We can visualise it as follows:

VISUALISATION:

int multiply(25, 10)
{
return 25*10;   //computes and returns 250
}

Therefore, multiply() returns its result which is stored into the variable ‘result‘. After the value is returned, execution goes back to main and proceeds to the next statement.

Previously in the English Language Basics series, I explained about:

• The Eight Classes Grouping All Words In The English Language
• How To Classify Words Into Parts Of Speech
• Anatomy Of A Simple Sentence In English Language

A Quick Recap

1) Parts of speech are classes or groups into which words are divided or classified according to their use in speech of writing. There are eight classes or parts of speech: noun, pronoun, verb, adjective, adverb, proposition, conjunction, interjection.

2) We have also seen that a word can be used as various parts of speech, that is, it is polymorphic.
Example:

• This is a light room
• Sarah will light the gas
• The light is dim right now

As you can observe, the word ‘light‘ is being used under the same form, but conveying different meaning in each sentence. With simple sentences, such as above, it might be easy to guess their form, but what about when sentences get complex? This is why I have brought forward the ‘Test For Parts Of Speech‘.

How To Find Out The Parts Of Speech Of Words?

The following questions should be asked:
1) Find out which words in the sentence is saying something about an object?
=> Those words are verbs

2) Which words are names?
=> These are nouns

3) Which words stand in the place of nouns?
=> These are pronouns

4) Which words describe or qualify a noun or pronoun?
=> These are adjectives

5) Which words modify other groups of words (aka parts of speech)?
=> These are adverbs

6) Which parts of speech show the relation of an object to something else?
=> These are prepositions

7) Which are merely exclamatory?
=> These are interjections

The Test At Work - The Example

Consider the sentence:
‘The CEO of the firm immediately asked problogger whether he would accept this small gift’.

The analysis:

1) Words like ‘asked‘, ‘would accept‘, make statements; they show an action - hence these are verbs.

2) ‘CEO‘, ‘firm‘, ‘problogger‘, ‘gift‘ are names. They are thus nouns.

3) ‘he‘ stands for ‘problogger‘, so it is a pronoun.

4) ‘the‘, ‘motivated‘, ‘this‘, ‘small‘ describe ‘CEO‘, ‘problogger‘, ‘gift‘ respectively - they are adjectives.

5) ‘immediately‘ tells us something about the ‘asking‘, it tells us when that action took place - It’s an adverb.

6) ‘whether‘ joins the two sentences: ‘The CEO.. problogger‘ and ‘he… gift.‘
Therefore, it is a conjunction.

7) The word ‘of‘ connects the nouns ‘firm‘ and ‘CEO‘, it is obviously a preposition.

1) Disseminate ==> spread widely

In our present era, it is seemingly difficult to disseminate a culture of non-violence.

2) Eradicate ==> destroy completely

Forests are being eradicated at an alarming rate for industrialisation and development purposes.

3) testimony ==> demonstration

The global warming is a conspicuous testimony of the impact of industrialisation.

4) Misconceptions ==> wrong ideas

In Mauritius, many misconception have emerged due to the advent of the Cyber-City.
