#include <iostream>

// Function declarations here
int outcome(int, int);
int rollDice();

// Begin main
int main()
{
  int roll01  = rollDice(); // must declare a variable
  int roll02  = rollDice();
  int result = outcome(roll01, roll02);

  // Do stuff with result
 
  return 0;
}

// Function definitions
int outcome(int, int)
{
  int whatHappned;

  // stuff

  return whatHappend;
}
int rollDice()
{
  return 5; // I picked it randomly :)
}


Also, please put the code tags around your code (via the <> button to the right of the post box).
