// Purpose - to illustrate passing a char argument to a function that
// returns a char
#include <iostream.h>
char encrypt(char x); // changes a character
int main()
{
char userLetter = 'a'; // character to be changed as entered by user
cout << "Enter a letter to be encrypted: ";
cin >> userLetter;
cout << "The value of your letter is " << encrypt(userLetter) << endl;
return 0;
} // end of main
char encrypt(char letterInputted)
{
// accepts a character as an input
// returns a character after it has been changed
char temp; // local temporary variable
temp = ++letterInputted;
// incrementing operator works here to change letter to nextletter in alphabet
// note that the 2 statements above could be consolidated to
// return ++letterInputted;
return temp;
} // end of encrypt
