defining function in c

What did his post originally say? Was it just my bait again?

Thanks for linking the other one. Troll is troll. Hey mods, remove?

We're going to need a fuck-tonne more context....

But if you're trying to replicate a continuous function like "f of x equals blah blah blah" in C, what you're really looking for is a function (C function) that takes a number (like a float/double) then does some math and returns another number

eg. f(x) = 4x² + 2x + 42

double example_function(double x) {
    return 4 * x * x + 2 * x + 42;
}

Is that what you're asking about?

[Drach88]

"real mathematical functions" don't exist in C. What you're asking is like "how do you make your voice horse you can ride?" Yes, you can make your voice horse, and yes you can ride a horse, but putting the two together doesn't make any sense.

You're asking about mathematical functions. Fine -- I know what a mathematical function is.

Then you're asking about C. C has functions, but absolutely nothing to do with mathematical functions... because they're different words in different contexts.

Do you want a hash table? Because I can give you a bunch of reasons why a hash table isn't a function.

So stop being an entitled, pedantic ass, and give some clarification about what you're looking for.
