Not needed, main in C++ implicitly returns 0 if there is no return

Should ≠ Needs to

You can do it, and it will work, but it's unclean and not best-practice. I wouldn't be surprised if it's undefined behaviour.

Just to clarify. It is defined behavior - there's plenty of undefined behavior in C but that ain't one of them.

I guess markdown is miserable as well.

Hey now, markdown serves it's purpose. It's not great, but as a web dev, I don't want people expecting full WYSIWYG editors in every website cause fuck that!

not being able to master markdown might hint at why the commenter is struggling with C++
