Answer: The difference between call by value and call by reference is that in call by value the actual parameters are passed into the function as arguments whereas in call by reference the address of the variables are sent as parameters.
Explanation:
Some examples are:
call by value
#include <stdio.h>
void swap(int, int);
int main()
{ int a = 10, b= 20;
swap(a, b);
printf("a: %d, b: %d\n", a, b);
}
void swap(int c, int d)
{
int t;
t = c; c = d; d = t;
}
OUTPUT
a: 10, b: 20
The value of a and b remain unchanged as the values are local
//call by reference
#include <stdio.h>
void swap(int*, int*);
int main()
{
int a = 10, b = 20;
swap(&a, &b); //passing the address
printf("a: %d, b: %d\n", a, b);
}
void swap(int *c, int *d)
{
int t;
t = *c; *c = *d; *d = t;
}
OUTPUT
a: 20, b: 10
due to dereferencing by the pointer the value can be changed which is call by reference
Answer: Probability/impact risk matrix
Explanation: Probability/impact risk matrix is type of matrix that defines the probability as well as impact that depicts whether the risk is low ,high or moderate.
Impact matrix is sort of tool which helps in conversion of any plan into a action. Probability matrix help in defining the chances in defining the risk.The positioning of the impact value of risk is plotted on the vertical axis and performance value on the horizontal axis.
Thus probability/impact matrix is the correct tool for the problem mentioned in the question.
