Write a function that returns the sum of two numbers. c++ code example

Example 1: sum of 2 numbers in cpp function

#include<iostream>
int add(int,int);
int main()
{
	using namespace std;
	int a,b;
	cout<<"Enter first number: ";
	cin>>a;
	cout<<"Enter second number: ";
	cin>>b;
	cout<<"Sum = "<<add(a,b);
}
int add(int x,int y)
{
	return(x+y);
}

Example 2: c++ program for addition of two numbers using functions

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

//function declaration
int addition(int a,int b);

int main()
{
	int a,b;	//to store numbers
	int add;	//to store addition 
	
	//read numbers
	cout<<"Enter first number: ";
	cin>>a;
	cout<<"Enter second number: ";
	cin>>b;
	
	//call function
	add=addition(a,b);
	
	//print addition
	cout<<"Addition is: "<<add<<endl;
	
	return 0;
}

//function definition
int addition(int a,int b)
{
	return (a+b);
}
