The 2nd argument must be a command, which can be an interactive function
or a keyboard macro, or a symbol with such a function binding -- see the
"What is a Function?" and "Command [Loop] Overview" sections of the
Emacs Lisp manual. The proper representation of the key sequence `C-c a
C-c' as a keyboard macro is any of:
"\C-c@\C-a" ; no spaces!
[?\C-c ?@ ?\C-a]
[(control ?c) ?@ (control ?a)]
(kbd "C-c @ C-a")
(see the "Init Rebinding" node of the Emacs manual and the "Changing Key
Bindings" node of the Emacs Lisp manual)

That's what I recommend, but some people prefer to use define-key and
specify the keymap by name:
(define-key c++-mode-map [f4] (kbd "C-c @ C-a"))
