    Why To Use int main()

    Hi I am new here and also new to C programming.
    As you can see that this is my first post.


    I have seen many codes and i have a que regarding to main().
    many ppl uses
    Code:
    int main()
    {
            statments;
            return(0);
    }
    and many of uses code like

    Code:
    void main()
    {
            statments;
    }
    Is there any specific reason of using int main() and then returning zero instead of using void main() directly OR all programmers love to type?

    Read the FAQ. If that is not enough for you, then do a board search on your question.
