Wall for stall_fest (page 5)

Thanks! And yeah, sure!
What's your Timezone? Mine's CEST

I'm also setting up a Discord account.

I'm good, just training up my shiny Pokemon

Specifically in C++, returning 0 in the function Main tells it the program executed with status 0: success, meaning the program executed as intended; whereas, returning 1 in Main tells the program it executed with status 1: failure, and will generate an error message telling you the program has failed. Specifically, this is supposed to be used to detect possible problems if the system can fail-state. :P

For example, having a variable that is used to divide something can bring erroneous results if that variable is 0, so before dividing that thing by the variable, you may want an if statement to check if it is zero, and if it is, return 1. :P

Therefore, returning 1 from main is not usually used when publishing a program, as it tells nothing to the user of the program. Actually, the assert function does something very similar: it stops the program if it evaluates to false, but it also tells what line, file, and expression failed. This is also used only for checking logical errors. The advantage to using 'return 1;' is that it can go in more places than assert, but assert can be disabled with '#include NDEBUG' so that it can be published without being removed (which is important when you have 5 1000+ line files that you don't want to go through and remove every assert from. :P

I hope my mind bomb didn't inflict a migraine upon you. :P

How are you doing?

Hey Blackace, it's been a while

You're welcome.

Okay :P. Enjoy yourself!

So you'll open on June 8 and close on June 16?

Haha. But, you probably wouldn't want a joke name :P (if that's what it is). You'd quickly get tired of seeing it.
