+The <b>void</b> <a href="../glossary.html#keyword">keyword</a>
+allows us to create functions that either do not require any
+parameters or do not return a value.<p>
+The following example shows a function that does not return
+a value.

+<table border=2 width="100%" bgcolor=ivory>

+<pre>
+
+ void Print_Square(int Number);

+ }
+
+ void Print_Square(int Number)
+ {
+ printf("%d squared is %d\n",Number, Number*Number);
+ }
+</pre>
+</td>

+The next example shows a function that does not require any parameters:
