Answer
Hi ngee

to solve a C++ or any kind of programming problem you have to go step by step

#include<iostream.h>

char func(void); //the function used in the program is declared here

void main() //step1: usual syntax void main
{
//step7: variable to store the value returned from the function
char a;

//step6: call the function to get the char
a = func();

//step8: print the char returned from the function
cout<<a;

}

//step2: a function that returns a char
char func()
{
//step3: a variable to store a char
char ch;    

//step4: for a char from the user
cin>>ch;

//step5: return the char to the calling function
return ch;
}

In case of any doubt please feel free to get back to me.
