,INP1501 ASSIGNMENT 2

Question 1

(i) For the function `check`, which takes an integer and a floating point number and returns no value:

python

def check(num: int, value: float) -> None:

pass



(ii) For the function `mult`, which takes two floating point numbers and returns their product:

python

def mult(a: float, b: float) -> float:

return a * b



(iii) For the function `time`, which takes seconds, minutes, and hours and returns them:

python

def time(seconds: int, minutes: int, hours: int) -> tuple:

return (seconds, minutes, hours)



(iv) For the function `countChar`, which counts the occurrences of a character in a string:

python

def countChar(s: str, char: str) -> int:

return s.count(char)



Question 2

Identifying errors and suggesting corrections:

(i) Nested Function Declaration Error:

c++

int function1()

{

, cout << "Inside function function1 " << endl;

int function2()

{

cout << "Inside function function2 " << endl;

}

}

Correction:

Functions cannot be nested in C++. Define `function2` outside of `function1`.

c++

int function2()

{

cout << "Inside function function2 " << endl;

}



int function1()

{

cout << "Inside function function1 " << endl;

}



(ii) Missing Return Statement:

c++

int sum(int x, int y)

{

int result;

result = x + y;

}



Correction:

A function declared to return `int` should explicitly return an integer value.
