I am little new to C++, I have one doubt in variable argument passing. As I mentioned in a sample code below ( This code won't work at all, just for others understanding of my question I framed it like this), I have two functions func with 1 parameter and 2 parameters(parameter overloading). I am calling the func from main, before that I am checking whether I needs to call 2 parameter or 1 parameter. Here is the problem, as I know I can call two fuctions in respective if elseif statements, but I am curious to know whether I can manage with only one function. (In below code I am passing string not int, as I mentioned before this is just for others understanding purpose.

#include<iostream.h>
#include <string>

void func(int, int);
void func(int);

void main()
{
   int a, b,in;

   cout << "Enter the 2 for 2 arg, 1 for 1 arg\n";
   cin << in;

   if ( in == 2)
   { 
      string pass = "a,b";
   }
   elseif ( in == 1)
   {
      string pass = "a";
   }
   else
   {
      return 0;
   }

   func(pass);

   cout<<"In main\n"<<endl;
}

void func(int iNum1)
{
   cout<<"In func1 "<<iNum1<<endl;
}

void func(int iNum1, int iNum2)
{
   cout<<"In func2 "<<iNum1<<" "<<iNum2<<endl;
}
