functions calling functions

Reminder: Java Gotchas:
- What two things does + mean, depending on context?
- What two things does / mean, depending on context?
- How do you check if two ints are equal — say, is n equal to 17?
- How do you check if two Strings are equal — say, is name equal to "Barland"?

 Give me signature for:
       if (blartz( "shoompah", 4.2 )) { ...}

        Give me *example calls* for a function that: 
         - translates text from English to Spanish
         - computes somebody's taxes based (just) on their income;
         - computes somebody's taxes based (just) on their income & marital status;
         Now, can you give me a signature?

Write a sample call of:   String wawa( int n, String wrd ) 


Consider the following function-signature:
     String representativeOf( int districtNum, String state )

Which of the following are reasonable guesses, as to what the function does?
   - given a representative's name and district, return their state?
   - given a districtNumer and state, return the name of the representative?
   - given a representative's name, return their district number and state?
Call this function (giving it any legal inputs you like).

Review syntax for: calling a function.
func-call-func: last3; hw01-soln; lab03b-soln Of course, a function (when workng away) might
Develop crustArea; our pizzeria makes 3″ crusts. Test cases will be given; we'll have people put up solutions on the board. start file; ending file
The golden rule of programming: Do not repeat code. Instead, you can always call (helper) functions from within the function you are writing.
(This is even more flexibility than local variables give us.)
Where else have we had repeated code? An example for the future: write testString, and/or testDouble.
