Define a function PrintFeetInchShort, with int parameters numFeet and numInches, that prints using ' and " shorthand.

Answer:
I'm developing a function in C++. If you need it in a different programming language, just let me know.
void PrintFeetInchShort(int numFeet, int numInches){
cout<<numFeet<<"\' "<<numInches<<"\"";
This function requires two integers, numFeet and numInches, as arguments. It employs cout to output the value of numFeet followed by a single quote, and subsequently the value of numInches, completed with double quotes. The character \ is utilized to introduce double quotes in the output. While using a backslash before a single quote isn't necessary, you could easily write cout<<numFeet<<"' " to display a single quote without it. However, the inclusion of backslash is essential for double quotes.
Explanation:
Here's the entire program to demonstrate how the function operates.
#include <iostream> // used for input and output operations
using namespace std; // to enable usage of cout and cin without specific qualifying prefix
void PrintFeetInchShort(int numFeet, int numInches){
// function for printing in shorthand using ' and '
cout<<numFeet<<"\' "<<numInches<<"\""; }
int main() { // beginning of main() body
PrintFeetInchShort(5, 8); }
// invokes PrintFeetInchShort() with arguments of 5 for //numFeet and 8 for numInches
To prompt the user for values of numFeet and numInches, do the following:
int main() {
int feet,inches; // declares two integer type variables
cout<<"Enter the value for feet:"; // asks user to provide the feet measurement
cin>>feet; // inputs the feet value from user
cout<<"Enter the value for inch:"; // asks user to provide the inch measurement
cin>>inches; // inputs the inch value from user
PrintFeetInchShort(feet, inches); } // invokes PrintFeetInchShort()
The screenshot of the program output has been attached.
