c - Return 1 in non main function -
i learning c , have confusion regarding return:
int factorial (int n) { if (n == 1) return 1; else return n * factorial (n -1); } in above recursive code in last call when n 1, return 1 return integer value 1 or error in execution in main. had confusion because return 1 treated differently in main , in function called main...
will
return 1return integer value 1 or error in execution in main?
return 1 returns integer value 1 any function declared return int, even if function happens int main().
a non-zero return value main() interpreted (by execution environment, e.g. shell) indicate error in execution. happens semantic of return value of main().
