What is a function modifier in c++?

Question

Throughout my classes and hobbyist programming activities, now and then I run into function modifiers. I've never taken the time to look into them. What are they? What do they do? And how are they written? Is it a call to another function to check the output Of the first function? Many thanks!

Answer 1

Dude you've know and used function modifiers along the way in C/C++; basically they are the keywords that come before the function's name. Example  in the function:

public static void foo ( )

{

}

"public" and "static " are modifiers for the function called foo() , because they add " more meaning " to it .

Good luck !
