Review return types. A float is not an int, and the return value of the method is an int. So no you can't return a float. The function must have a float return type. Like: float main(){ return 0.0; } The main method can't be a float though. So this still wouldn't work. Why can't it be a float? The way it was designed is to just return 0 to say it's a valid execution. No point in taking larger float values.

no because int main () will return a int.
