I am totally lost with this challenge. Could you help steer me in the right direction?
"Implement a function named "addTwo" that returns the sum of two floats. The function will accept two float numbers as arguments. It should add the two arguments together, and return the result. (No need to write the main function. Just write out the implementation for the addTwo function.)"

47,912 PointsIn order to implement a function, you need to specify its return type, then specify the functions name, then specify parameters it will take by defining their names and types in parentheses, then you write your code between brackets. This follows your directions (I'm assuming you're still on the part where you're learning plain C):
float addTwo(float float1, float float2){
return float1 + float2;
}

```returnType functionName (returnType arg1, returnType arg2) { return arg1+arg2; }
i felt the lesson was pretty thorough in the explanation of how C functions are written.
