call by reference and return by reference in c++ code example

Example 1: calling by reference c++

int main() {
    int b = 1;
    fun(&b);
    // now b = 10;
    return 0;
}

Example 2: call by reference c++ example

//call by reference example c++
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

void swap(int& x, int& y) {
	cout << x << " " << y << endl;
	int temp = x;
	x = y;
	y = temp;
	cout << x << " " << y << endl;

}

int main() {
    
	int a = 7;
	int b = 9;

	swap(a, b);

}

Example 3: calling by reference c++

void fun3(int a)
{
    a = 10;
}

int main()
{
    int b = 1;
    fun3(b);
    // b  is still 1 now!
    return 0;   
}
