Question

Is there a preferred way to return multiple values from a C++ function? For example, imagine a function that divides two integers and returns both the quotient and the rema

Answer 1

Quick answer:

#include 
using namespace std;

// different values of [operate] can return different number.
int yourFunction(int a, int b, int operate)
{
    a = 1;
    b = 2;

    if (operate== 1)
    {
        return a;
    }
    else
    {
        return b;
    }
}

int main()
{
    int a, b;

    a = yourFunction(a, b, 1); // get return 1
    b = yourFunction(a, b, 2); // get return 2

    return 0;
}
