Hi, I'm new to emacs and trying to get my way through the cc-mode for editing c/c++ files in the manual, it says to activate h cc-mode using the ``c-mode`` symbol and use ``C-M-a`` keybinding to move to beginning of the function, but when I do it, it says ``M-a undefined`` in the mini-buffer. How do I fix it. I have tried look in the manual and net but could get any lead...

yea bruv did that but getting the message, ``M-ā is undefined``. Do I require to make changes to my init file?

What OS, keyboard layout, and Emacs version?

I had a similar issue on my windows work computer. In the keyboard layout "C-M-e" was translated into '€' . I simply rebound '€' to be forward-defun as I don't type that ever, and if I for some reason wanted to I guess I could do "C-q €"
