Surgeon General’s Warning!
v The “Fluency” book uses a different way of explaining
parameter passing (as assignment statements into
the formal parameters).
v For straightforward programs, this always gives the
same results as pass by reference.
v However, for some messy cases it gives different
results.
o Ugh!  We’re never going to give you such programs in
CSE/IMT 100 (in homework or quizzes).
o If you go on to further study of programming, however, you
will probably run into this.
o The way described in the lecture is how it’s actually done.
