Hi, I know the solution might be quite simple, but i've been trying for almost an hour. I tried to look into the forms for a solution, nothing worked, and I gave up.
My code for the addTwo function were as follows:
int addTwo(float first, float second){ float first = 1.0; float second = 2.0; float sum = first + second; return sum; }
any solutions please?

float addTwo(float first, float second){
float sum = first + second;
return sum;
}

7,468 PointsHi Mikael, I tried the code Nick suggested and I received an error:
"Bummer! The function does not appear to be returning the correct value. Is the return type a float?"
Can you tell me how to change the return type to float? I appreciate ur help

5,487 PointsAs you can see, you already defined float first and second as parameters. Remove this:
float first = 1.0;
float second = 2.0;
If you did that, you should have this:
int addTwo(float first, float second){
float sum = first + second;
return sum;
}
This should give you the desired result! Let me know if you have anymore questions.

7,468 PointsThank you Nick,
I still get the following error:
"Bummer! The function does not appear to be returning the correct value. Is the return type a float?"

7,468 PointsI found the solution, I just had to change the 'int' in the declaration to float
the code was as follows:
float addTwo(float first, float second){
float sum = first + second;
return sum;
}
Thanks for your help!

Reading this codes makes sense. But it looks nothing like any of the tutorials from the video.
so confused...
