554 PointsI don't know what i'm doing wrong with the task of writing the first float function.
it's dealing with writing the first function in the challenge section of this course.

float addTwo(float a, float b) {
return a + b;
}
That should work for you. I didn't want to post the answer, but I hope you'll learn from the explanation :)

554 Pointsfloat addTwo (float a, float b);
it's asking to write a function that implements the addTwo, where two floats are added together and the sum is returned.

11,940 PointsI did get that, was just looking at the Code Challenge :)
Ok, so if that's all the code you have, I believe you're forgetting the return statement. Try to implement that, and let me know if you still need help :)

554 PointsI thought it was just asking me to give the implantation, like one line?

11,940 PointsI think in this case, is simply wants the shell of the function, meaning the return type, the name, the arguments it will accept, and what it will return. Not 100% on that, but to pass the challenge you're required to code those 4 things.
Did you pass it?

554 Pointsthis is odd, i don't think I've even been so cerflazeled, not since i drank too much, and told everyone that I was a crackhead. Thanks.
