Shame. You copy pasted from http://www.cprogramming.com/faq/cgi-...wer=1044841143. It's bad that you copy pasted large amounts of text from another site. As for not even naming the source, and that you quoted verbatim...well , that says a lot about you.

main() returns an int.

void main() is a non-standard Microsoft doo-dah which they have been trying to erase ever since they did it.
