Hi M Raghavendra
There is a search function for the Q&A Discussions area which you many use to find many commonly asked questions. Here is one example I found.

Answer 2

//doesn't have a return statement
//(void = nothing)

void main(){
//some code
}

//returns an ineger
//integer = number

int main(){
//some code
return 1;
}

//returns boolean
//true/false
bool main(){
//code
return true;
}

Of corse, the number "1" could be an variable and be like

return variablename;

or something, but i hope you understood what i mean.

int main() returns an int, bool main() returns a boolean and void main() returns nothing.

If not, have a look at Datatypes😉🔥

Answer 3

using return type will allow:
If u want to use the output of a function later in the code or want to do more processing u can store it in a separate variable.

By using same Kind of variable as the return statement will give you you

int squAre(int a)
{
return a*a;
}

int c = squAre(3);

OR you can directly print it:

cout<<squAre(3)

void:
on the other side if you use void you will not be able to get the output of the code(mean you can get the result in a variable easily
...
but to get this you can use reference an store the out put value in a variable
