Eased the mobilization and transportation of troops
Answer:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
void divide(int numerator, int denominator, int *quotient, int *remainder)
{
*quotient = (int)(numerator / denominator);
*remainder = numerator % denominator;
}
int main()
{
int num = 42, den = 5, quotient=0, remainder=0;
divide(num, den, "ient, &remainder);
return 0;
}
Explanation:
The exercise is for "Call by pointers". This technique is particularly useful when a variable needs to be changed by a function. In our case, the quotient and the remainder. The '&' is passing by address. Since the function is calling a pointer. We need to pass an address. This way, the function will alter the value at the address.
To sum up, in case we hadn't used pointers here, the quotient and remainder that we set to '0' would have remained zero because the function would've made copies of them, altered the copies and then DELETED the copies. When we pass by pointer, the computer goes inside the memory and changes it at the address. No new copies are made. And the value of the variable is updated.

If you're using google chrome if you look in the top right corner there are a button with 3 horizontal lines, click it, once you do that go down that list and click settings once you click that, hit extensions on the left side of the screen, after that you will see a list of extension you have find the extension you would like to delete and look far right to the extension and click the trash can. Once you click the trash can a pop up will appear and will say "Confirm Removal" and under that "Remove_______" If that is the extension you would like to remove continue if not go back to finding that extension If it is click remove
