to return 2 arguments to main?

[gantsooj]

how ro return 2 values x and y from function to main? then to add these values to the a[x], and a[y]. it means to add x and y from function to the array

[jsmith]

To return more than one value from a function:

void some_func( int& x, int& y ) {
   x = 5;
  y = 4;
}

int main() {
    int a, b;
    some_func( a, b );
    // a == 5, b == 4 now
}

You can have two arguments passed by reference to your function used for output

eg:

void return2values(/*some arguments*/, int &result1, int &result2)
{
    //some computations
    result1 = something;
    result2 = something_else;
}

EDIT: typed too slow...

You could use pointer arguments, too. Then it will be obvious to the users of the function that the values may be modified (noticeable from the & in the calls).

Although less common, you could also return a std::pair or a boost::tuple. It all depends on how you want your code to be.
