Answer / rahul
no we can't write a program with out main function, this
function is the main function which usually help OS to kill
the process that has executed, like in JAVA main() is used
as a thread whose wqork is to kill the executed process and
mark those as GC( Garbage collection)

Answer / vignesh1988i
as for i know in C , we cant write a program wit out main()..

it will start executing the statements only from the
main().... so only we will say tht FIRST EXECUTABLE FUNCTION
IS THE MAIN() FUNCTION.........

@Rahul
In java, the job of killing the threads who have done their job (and garbage collection) is done by the java runtime environment. The main thread may even itself come to an end before all its child threads have completed their execution.

Answer / samarth
yes, we can write C programs , without main() functions.
though they are not the kind of programs we use in everyday

main() function.

Given only putchar (no sprintf, itoa, etc.) write a routine putlong that prints out an unsigned long in decimal.

The interviewer wasn't too pleased and asked me to give a solution which didn't need the array ].
