Year 11 Computer Science ATAR: Parameters and return values
Students learn how parameters, arguments and return values move data into and out of functions, including lists, multiple return values, and side effects versus pure functions.
One content description from the full WA Computer Science ATAR Year 11 — Modular Programming journey. All 10 modules below are in that journey too, with the same content — add just these to a class, or the whole strand.
