Answer 1

`return` is not a function, it is supposedly written as:

return <something>;

Instead of

<something> = return(<something-else>);

(Edit)
You can't see what happens to local members past the `return` statement or block-end bracket '}' they are surely have been destroyed. A possible exception *probably* be a dynamically allocated memory that is not passed on somewhere else, since this types of memory is not stored in the stack. But still, nothing gets executed past a return statement or block-end bracket '}'.
