The formal argument list for a C++ function.

For example, a function name can refer to more than one function, taking different sets of argument types. Therefore, a C++ function cannot be uniquely described by its function name alone. By attaching the argument list, and the class name, the function is uniquely identified. The argument list, class name, and function name form a C++ signature.
