Hi, main() { } Is a user defined function or Built in Functionn..

Answer / amit jha

1. main() itself is a predefined function.

where as main() is a userdefined function because there we
are writing the internal part.

2. it is an inbuilt function i.e, main() it indicates the
starting of the program and it is a user defined function
when the user defines it as void main() or int main(void).

3. A program usually stops executing at the end of main,
although it can terminate at other points in the program
At times, perhaps when a certain error is detected, you
may want to force the termination of a program. To do so,
use the exit function. so that main() is a user defined
function.

Answer / pravat kumar patra

main() is a user defind function.because we write some codes
inside main to perform certain task.but in case of sqrt() if
write the function in a program it executes.but we have not
to write the function body.
consider the case:-
void main() void main()
{ {
printf("hello"); inti=25,p=sqrt(i);
} printf("%d",p);
}

use header file math.h.
