No, the function of the sentence "I can't believe you didn't call me" is not imperative. To identify the function and the corresponding endmark of a sentence, you need to analyze the type of sentence and its purpose.
The given sentence is a declarative sentence, which means that it is making a statement or expressing an opinion. The speaker is expressing disbelief about a situation.
The endmark for a declarative sentence is usually a period (.), indicating a statement or a fact. Therefore, the correct answer in this case is:
