Worse, you could call these draw_circle(),draw_circle2(), anddraw_circle3().
This is not very practical. Take a look at Listing B1.1. You will notice something odd
about this listing which draws two squares. You should notice that there is more than one
square()function. Squares are being used because the code is simpler than that for cir-
cles.LISTINGB1.1 square.cpp. Multiple squarefunctions
