# Section 1 / Chapter 6 / Calling and Returning From Functions # Section 1 / Chapter 5 / Calling and Returning From Functions
Calling functions, passing parameters to them and receiving back return values is basic to using `C` and and `C++`. Calling methods (which are functions connected to classes) is similar but with enough differences to warrant its own discussion to be provided later in the chapter on [structs](../struct/structs.md).

Up to 8 parameters can be passed directly via registers. Each parameter can be up to the size of an address, long or double (8 bytes). If you need to pass more than 8 parameters or you need to pass parameters which are larger than 8 bytes or are `structs`, you would use a different technique described later.

`w1` (the length) will be multipled by `w5` (the size of each array member), added to `x3` (the base address of the array) and the result will be placed into `x4`. This assembly language instruction implements this in C: `w1` (the length) will be multiplied by `w5` (the size of each array member), added to `x3` (the base address of the array) and the result will be placed into `x4`. This assembly language instruction implements this in C:
