Hi there
i have some questions in C program and i straggled to find right answer.
1- What is the different between void main and in main(void). 2- what is parameter in c program? 3-In loop what the different between ++i And i++? 4- what the benfits of the loop(for and while)and when we need to use them?
I know it seems to be stupid questions for some people but i am new in c program.
Thanks
Read the FAQ of this site. All the answers to these questions are there.
1. Get rid of gets(). Never ever ever use it again. Replace it with fgets() and use that instead.
2. Get rid of void main and replace it with int main(void) and return 0 at the end of the function.
3. Get rid of conio.h and other antiquated DOS crap headers.
4. Don't cast the return value of malloc, even if you always always always make sure that stdlib.h is included.
Being new to programming is not a license to be lazy. Search engines and FAQs exist precisely for finding answers to questions such as these.

You don't need to use them at all unless you are writing a computer program, in which case the use value will quickly become obvious.Originally Posted by Majed

with any function the type comes first. the parameter/s go inside the brackets.
void main(void)
type main(parameter)
function name= main
int main(void)
type=integer
a parameter is a value passed to a function. I don't think that's the best way to say it though.
