Hello, can you tell me what is the difference of main()  and int main(void)?? because in some tutorials i see the first, at others the second...i am confused

[Hax0r]

People mainly use 2 ways of main...

int main()

{

//code

return 0;  //returns a value

}

 

void main()

{

//code

}

 

 

First of all main() is a function.

Functions have a type... int main() means that function main is of type integer and must return a value.

void main() means that function main does NOT return a value.

 

If you want your code to be portable, you should use the first way (int main()) because some compilers only support that way.
