Calling options to make the program more efficient

Calling options to make the program more efficient

Hello Angela!

It’s easy to implement and call functions or sub-functions. This usually implemented if you have to use the functions processes in a program for multiple time. This is for the benefit of making the program smaller and lessen lots of codes. I created a program that will illustrate how to implement this.

You just need the following.

1. Form 1 = you can manipulate this for or maybe add color.

2. 3 textboxes >> with name properties of strBox1, strBox2, strSum.

3. 1 Command button.

Here are the codes.

Public Class Form1

    Public Function add_values()

        intSum.Text = Val(intBox1.Text) + Val(intBox2.Text)

    End Function

    Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

        Call add_values()

    End Sub

End Class

The part that says Public Function add_values(), you have to type it manually. The user will be the one to define it. The “Call” just called and initiated the arithmetic operation – add. Notice that I placed the “Val” before the expression? We need to indicate it every because if not, it will only combine 1 and 2 that is equivalent to 12 not 3.
