Ok. In main function the return 0 serves as a signal to you know your program exited correctely. Because people implemented that 0 equals exit success Anything that is not 0 ( generally we use 1) equals exit failure. But if i not use what happens? Here the answer: https://www.sololearn.com/discuss/1555239/?ref=app In an informal way you are saiyng your programs end here and if return 0 executes you are giving a signal that your program worked perfectly.

so, “return 0;” Means Your Program Has Exceeted properly, Then “return 1;” means that Your Program Has Not Exceeted Properly.

return 0 is simply the successful ending of a program, any other returned value means there is a prblm.
