If we declare a function friend int show(T4Tutorials_Floyds_Triangle);as a friend in a class T4Tutorials_Floyds_Trianglethen this function int show (T4Tutorials_Floyds_Triangle a)can access the private and protected members of the class T4Tutorials_Floyds_Triangle.
You must know that a global function can also be declared as a friend function of the class.
Syntax of friend function in C++
class class_name { … friend return_type function_name(arguments); … }
