Find the error(s) in each of the following program segments and explain how the error(s) can be corrected:

(v) void theProduct() { int a; int b; int c; int result; cout << “Enter three integers “ << endl; cin >> a >> b >> c; result = a * b * c; cout << “Result is “ << result << endl; return result; }

Answer 1

#include <iostream>
void theProduct(){    // int instead of void or if you want to return value
    using namespace std; // define namespace or std::cout, std::cin, std::endl
    int a; int b; int c;
    int result;
    cout <<"Enter three integers"<< endl;
    cin >> a >> b >> c;
    result = a * b * c; 
    cout << "Result is"<< result << endl;
//    return result; void type returns nothing
    
}
