I tried to search with google the problem it tell me that i must put "return 0 ;" at the end but .. I have the same error i dont understand .
Paul has described below one way to compile your program and run it.
The reference to "return 0;" means that a correct C program would include that as the last line of main():
int main(void)
{
printf("%d\n",add(3,5));
return 0;
}Leaving it out probably won't prevent your program from running, but it may not correctly indicate its success to the operating system.
Thank you very much for help , sam ...
Try this:
$ mv prog prog.c $ make prog $ ./prog
