And if returning a value is better, why? Also - if returning a value holds an advantage, how does it rank with stlib.h's exit(0)?

Better read the whole damn thing
There is one big difference between exit and return. Exit will cause the program to terminate even from within a function whereas return does not ( necessarily )...
Code:int main(void){srand(time(0));for(double l=rand(),l0=0,l00=0;;l0+=0.1){for(double l000=0;l000 <1;l000+=.001,l+=((double)rand()/RAND_MAX)/0x64,l00+=((sin(l*0x8*atan(l0)*l000-(l0*0x8*atan (l)))*0.5)+0.5)){l00-=floor(l00);for(size_t l0000=0,l00000=(size_t)(0x50*(l00));l0000<l00000;++l0000 )putchar(0x20);putchar(0x61+(int)((double)rand()/RAND_MAX*0x1a));putchar('\n');}}return 0;}
