Answer / ravi joshi
As many of them have answered here, main is a special
function in C/C++ programs. The compiler does not care if
you have defined main or not, but linker does. If linker
finds main defined in the objects being linked, then the
address of main function is placed at the top of execution
stack. And automatically when loader loads the
program/process, the main function gets loaded at the top of
execution stack, and system starts execution using
__crtmain() which internally calls main() of the program/process

Answer / vrushali
The c run time system inserts some start up code before the
main function and inserts some clean up code at the end of
the program .
The operating system loads the executable of the program in
to the memory with the help of the loader and transfers the
control to theprogram .

Answer / vrushali
If the execution of a program is required to start from a
test program e.g test (). Then we are required to change the
linker itself. As there a default program which searches for
main .
