Why can't I overload a function by its return type?

Miscellaneous technical issues, C++ FAQ Lite
If you declare both char f() and float f(), the compiler gives you an error message, since calling simply f() would be ambiguous.

WHAT is a overload?

Spring Works - Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) leaf spring ...
overload is a second stage leaf spring which is engaged when load is applied. It is usually located at the bottom of a leaf spring assembly. Most of the time it is tapered. Top mount overloads are auxiliary overloads located at the top of a leaf spring assembly.

FAQ
Overloading is considered more than 17 units in a quarter. Lab units count for ½ in this calculation, so 13 lecture hours and 8 lab hours would be 17 hours. Overloads are only approved where a student's QPR is high enough that they will clearly be able to do graduate level work in all courses, not just skim by.

How do I return multiple rows or columns from a function?

PostgreSQL FAQ
It is easy using set-returning functions, http://techdocs.postgresql.org/guides/SetReturningFunctions. PL/PgSQL caches function scripts, and an unfortunate side effect is that if a PL/PgSQL function accesses a temporary table, and that table is later dropped and recreated, and the function called again, the function will fail because the cached function contents still point to the old temporary table. The solution is to use EXECUTE for temporary table access in PL/PgSQL.

What is the difference between an expenditure function code and an expenditure type?

FM FAQs
The expenditure function is the overall purpose for which a project exists. It is an attribute assigned to the project when it is created. In their financial statements, public institutions are required to classify expenditures by function. The following functional classifications are derived from the Financial Accounting and Reporting Manual for Higher Education. For a complete list of expenditure function codes, click here.

Or put another way: What should my callback function return?

EmStar Frequently Asked Question
DEVICE CLIENTS: You should return EVENT_RENEW if you want it to be called again. Many new users return zero, which unfortunately is equivalent to returning EVENT_DONE. STATUS DEVICE SERVER: status_response_cb_t should return STATUS_MSG_COMPLETE if the response is complete, otherwise, return STATUS_MSG_READABLE to keep the device readable and force a client readback.

I can't make my function keys work properly with TNOS under X ?

TNOS Installation
The function key problem with TNOS under X has to do with the fact that the terminfo entry for xterm is seriously broken in many distributions (I know it is in Slackware through at least 1.2.0). Following is an "xterm.tic" souce file for my hacked version that restores fkey functionality. Run it through tic to generate the new database file, and the problem should be solved in xterms (or rxvts) opened thereafter. BTW -- this problem drove me nuts for almost a month.

Can a function return multiple values?

scheme-faq-language
There are two ways to do this in standard Scheme. The most obvious one is to return a list, e.g. (define (foo) (list 1 2)) (let ((r (foo))) (let ((res1 (car r)) (res2 (cadr r))) ...)) The problem with the above is that there is no obvious syntactic distinction between returning multiple values and returning a single list value. This is not only aesthetically unpleasant but prevents any optimisation that could otherwise be applied. Furthermore, extracting the results from the list is cumbersome.

What does the RETURN+ function do?

Welcome to JVCUAE.COM
When watching a particular channel that engages your attention you may wish to scan through other channels, probably during a commercial break. Just press the RETURN button for about 3 seconds before beginning scanning, the Return+ function will memorize the channel you were viewing and after scanning you can immediately get back to the original by just another press of RETURN.

How can I make my C function return itself?

Frequently Asked Questions
Suppose I'm writing an ASM function 'foo(n)' which accepts an argument (a string, for example). I want to make 'foo(n)' return 'foo(n)' (the call itself) when 'n' is of type "VAR" (i.e. if nothing has been assigned to 'n' yet)... This is quite easy, if you know in advance the name of the program. Suppose, that your program name is "example".

How can I return several values from a function?

Miscellaneous
Either pass pointers to locations which the function can fill in, or have the function return a structure containing the desired values, or (in a pinch) consider global variables.  See also questions 2.17, 3.4, and 9.2.

How can I return multiple values from a function?

FAQs
REXX does not provide any support for returning more than a single value from a function. If you wish to return multiple values you must devise an alternate scheme. A simple solution is to concatenate the values together into a single string and on return from the function use the PARSE instruction or the various string functions to split the string back into its elements.

When should I return a reference from a function?

FAQs | DevelopersVoice.com
The information being returned is a large enough object that returning a reference is more efficient than returning a copy. Just as it can be more efficient to pass large objects to functions by reference, it also can be more efficient to return large objects from functions by reference. Reference-return protocol eliminates the necessity of copying the object to a temporary location prior to returning. The type of the function must be an l-value.

How come that if Lisp is so powerful, you can't overload functions?

Staging Area for the Common Lisp FAQ
In some other language that shall stay nameless, you can initially write: int foo (int bar) { return bar + 42 ; } and later come back revisiting it because now you need an extra boolean argument.

Are there other disorders that cause iron overload?

Genomics|Training|Perspectives|Hemochromatosis FAQ
In the United States, the most frequent cause of iron overload is hereditary hemochromatosis. However, there are rare genetic disorders that also result in iron overload such as neonatal hemochromatosis and juvenile hemochromatosis. In addition, iron overload can result from years of excess iron ingestion and repeated blood transfusions.

What is 'Iron Overload'?

Resonance Health: Frequently Asked Questions
Iron overload is the accumulation of excess iron in body tissues. Hemochromatosis is a disease resulting in iron overload. Hemochromatosis can have genetic and non-genetic causes. As such, the disease is referred to as hereditary hemochromatosis (HHC). Most cases are a result of a genetic predisposition resulting in excessive absorption of iron from the food we eat on a daily basis.

How do I know if I have iron overload?

Iron Disorders Institute - Frequently Asked Questions
Tests are needed to determine iron overload: fasting serum iron and total iron binding capacity (TIBC) are used to calculate the Tsat% (transferrin-iron saturation percentage). Serum ferritin measures the amount of iron in containment (storage). Tsat% is normally 25-35%; serum ferritin range varies by age and gender, but as a rule 25-75ng/mL is a normal range for most.

Are my children at risk for iron overload?

Iron Disorders Institute - Frequently Asked Questions
HFE related iron overload is not known to occur in youths. The iron accumulation process in classic HHC is very slow and takes 20-30 years to manifest in symptoms or organ damage. Newborns and infants have a naturally high iron saturation and ferritin, which can be misleading and inappropriately attributed to iron loading. There is a form of juvenile hemochromatosis, but this form is caused by genes other than HFE.

If I have iron overload, how often should I have a phlebotomy?

Iron Disorders Institute - Frequently Asked Questions
Patients with serum ferritin over 1,000ng/mL need aggressive iron removal and may need a phlebotomy twice a week until ferritin is lowered to a normal range. Once ferritin is below 1,000ng/mL, the risk of cirrhosis is less than 1%. Iron loading patterns vary with the individual depending upon a person's age, compliance with therapy, general health, tissue iron levels, modifying genes not yet discovered, tolerance to blood extractions, and diet, especially the amount of red meat consumed.
