You can use separate files for function prototypes and definitions. In the header file, you will have the prototype: int timesTwo (int a); And in the .cpp file you will have the definiton: int timesTwo (int a) { return 2 * a; ) Of course then you will have to include the header file in main, as well as include the cpp file in the header file.
