(the output is some meaningless number, seems to be an address)

num1 only exists within the scope of main, you must pass it into your function to use it.

I have been reading your posts and I think that you are missing some fundamental ideas. If you have a textbook, go back and reread the appropriate sections, as your misperceptions are going to be harmful to your coding.
