int compute_score(string word);
string find_winner(int score1, int score2);

			

 

With compute_score, there will be two words used, word1 and word2. Instead of

int compute_score(string word1,string word2);

			

It is

Copy Code

int compute_score(string word);


			

This is unlike score1, score2 with find_winner. Is it due to get_string function to be used for getting input?

What is confusing is that while word argument with compute_score will subsequently change to word1 and word2, the arguments with find_winner (score1, and score2) are mentioned exactly the way they will be later used.
