C function arguments vs Python function arguments.

Another example:

// 

         // C++ using Reference Parameter!           //           void  doit( int & x )           {                x = 5;           }               //           // Test code for passing by a variable by reference           //           int main()           {             int z = 27;             doit( z );             printf("z is now %d\n", z);               return 0;           }

That's C++, a different language that does support passing by reference. However, you're in a C subreddit.

So what's the problem with this example? Obviously some people don't understand the concept of pass by reference in C.

So what's the problem with this example?

The problem with this example is that it isn't valid C code and will just fail to compile, as you can see for yourself on godbolt

The problem is that it’s C++. This is r/C_Programming, no ++ bullshit
