    The function definition to this question can be described as follows:

    bool newbie () / /defining a bool method newbie

    {

    static bool y = true; / / defining a static bool variable y and assign value true

    bool t1=y; / /defining bool variable t1 and assign value of variable y

    y=false; / / assigning value in variable y

    return t1; / / return value of variable t1

    }

    Explanation:

    The program to this question can be described as follows:

    Program:

    #include / /defining header file

    using namespace std;

    bool newbie () / /defining a bool method newbie

    {

    static bool y = true; / / defining a static bool variable y and assign value true

    bool t1=y; / /defining bool variable t1 and assign value of variable y

    y=false; / / assigning value in variable y

    return t1; / / return value of variable t1

    }

    int main () / /defining main method

    {

    int s, s1; / /defining integer variable s, and s1

    s=newbie (); / / variable s that call method

    cout<
    s1=newbie (); //variable s that call method

    cout<
    return 0;

    }

    Output:

    1

    Description:

    The description of the above function can be described as follows:

    In the above method definition a boolean method "newbie" is declared, which can't accept any parameters, inside the method, two boolean variable "y and t1" is declared. In this variable, variable y is a static boolean variable, that assigns a true value, and in t1 variable, we hold static variable value. In the next step, the "y" variable assigns a value, that is false and returns variable t1 value. In the next step, the main method is declared, inside these two integer variable s, s1 is declared, that calls a method, and prints it value in the first time, it will print 1, that means the false and second time it will print 0, that means false.
