[previous] 2887 [next] Function 'main' ends with an implicit 'return' statement.
Control flow

Function 'main' ends with an implicit return statement.

The function 'main' returns a value of type 'int' in a hosted environment. In the absence of an explicit return statement, a conforming ISO:C90 implementation will return an undefined value; but a conforming ISO:C99 implementation, will simply return a value of 0.

It is good practice for the 'main' function to include an explicit return statement with a return expression of type int.
