Question
what is the purpose of a return statement/exit() function?

Answer
Hai dear Elme,



 The exit() function stops the program. exit_code is passed on to be the return value of the program, where usually zero indicates success and non-zero indicates an error.

I have already answered similar question .. from you statement I can understand that the usage of exit() / return statement specially on main() function .. please follow the reference link given below .. let me know if you wish to have more information regarding that ..
