    <p>As stated @Krishnabhadra, all previous responses from other users, have a correct interpretation, and I just want to make a more detailed analysis of some points.</p> <p>In the Old-C as in ANSI-C the "<strong>untyped formal parameter</strong>", take the dimencion of your work register or instruction depth capability (shadow registers or instruction cumulative cycle), in an 8bit MPU, will be an int16, in a 16bit MPU and so will be an int16 an so on, in the case 64bit architectures may choose to compile options like: -m32.</p> <p><em>Although it seems simpler implementation at high level, For pass multiple parameters, the work of the programmer in the control dimencion data type step, becomes more demanding.</em></p> <p>In other cases, for some microprocessors architectures, the ANSI compilers customized, leveraged some of this old features to optimize the use of the code, forcing the location of these "untyped formal parameters" to work within or outside the work register, today you get almost the same with the use of "volatile" and "register".</p> <p><strong>But it should be noted that the most modern compilers, not make any distinction between the two types of parameters declaration.</strong></p> <p>Examples of a compilation with gcc under linux:</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/HogK8.png" alt="main.c"></p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/n3S39.png" alt="main2.c"></p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/eD83p.png" alt="main3.c">   <br /> <em>In any case the statement of the prototype locally is of no use, because there is no call without parameters reference to this prototype will be remiss. If you use the system with "untyped formal parameter", for an external call, proceed to generate a declarative prototype data type.</em></p> <p>Like this:</p> <pre><code>int myfunc(int param); </code></pre>
