Re: What will happen if main called in side main function?

This example is incorrect because main() returns an
`int'; it is not a `void' function. The C language does
not define what will happen when you mis-define main()
this way; however, on many implementations the effect
will be similar to the second example.

int main()
{
main();
}

This example will execute forever, provided the machine
running it has infinite resources. Less powerful machines
may be unable to run this program to completion ...
