a qestion about functions (2 sets of parameters)

[lordhuh]

i know in a class u can do this

class clsAttack
{public:
	void attack(clsPlayer* player, clsMonster* monster)
	{

	}
	void attack(clsMonster* monster, clsPlayer* player);
	{

	}
}

it will do 2 different things based on what parameters you pass it. how can i do that outside of a class. do i just make both functions? please help Karl Pietri

Yep, if they are both funcitons outside of a class it will still behave the same. Function Overloading may be done anywhere.

Ex:

//function Prototypes
void attack(clsPlayer*, clsMonster*);
void attack(clsMonster*, clsPlayer* );

int main()
{
...
}

void attack(clsPlayer* pPlayer, clsMonster* pMonster)
{
...
}

void attack(clsMonster* pMoster, clsPlayer* pPlayer)
{
...
}
