Answer the following questions true (T) or false (F)
1. Default arguments can be used with either call-by-value or call-by-reference parameters.
2. If we want to find the median of 100 scores, we need 100 separate variables to hold the data..
1. False
Explanation: The text says “[Default arguments] do not make sense for call-by-reference parameters.”. Suppose the function writes to the parameter. What does the parameter cause to be changed in the caller?
2. False
Explanation: We can (much more easily) use an array of 100 of the type of the scores to find the median.
