If the code has errors, fault etc., it will be terminated by non-zero value.In C++ language, the main() function can be left without return value. By default, it will return zero.Here is the syntax of main() function in C language, int main() {    ….    return 0; }Here is an example of main() function in C language, Example Live Demo#include int main() {    int a = 10;    char b = 'S';    float c = ...

The datatype size_t is unsigned integral type. It represents the size of any object in bytes and returned by sizeof operator. It is used for array indexing and counting. It can never be negative. The return type of strcspn, strlen functions is size_t.Here is the syntax of size_t in C language, const size_t var_name;Here, var_name − This the name of variable.Here is an example of size_t in C language, Example Live Demo#include #include #include int main(void) {    const size_t x = 150;    int a[x];    for (size_t i = 0;i < x; ++i)    a[i] = ...

Increment operators are used to increase the value by one while decrement works opposite. Decrement operator decrease the value by one.Pre-increment (++i) − Before assigning the value to a variable, the value is incremented by one.Post-increment (i++) − After assigning the value to a variable, the value is incremented.Here is the syntax of i++ and ++i in C++ language,++variable_name; // Pre-increment variable_name++; // Post-incrementHere,variable_name −Name of the variable given by user.Here is an example of pre and post increment in C++ language,Example Live Demo#include using namespace std; int main() {    int i = 5;    cout

To get the UNIX syslog library information, we need to use the syslog module into our programs. This module has syslog has different modules for the syslog library. To use this module, we should import it using − import syslog The methods are like below − Method syslog.syslog(message) or syslog.syslog(priority, message) This method is used to send a string type message to the system logger. Each message has a priority. The priority argument can be used to set the priority of the given message. Method syslog.openlog([ident[, logoption[, facility]]]) This method is used to logging options of subsequent syslog ... Read More

To measure the UNIX resource usage, we need to use the resource module into our programs. This module also can control the resource utilization. To use this module, we should import it using − import resource Resource Limits In this module we can use the setrlimit() to limit the resource utilization. There are two parameters to limit the resources. These parameters are soft limit and the hard limit. The soft limit is basically the current limit, it can be changed over process, but it cannot exceed the hard limit. The hard limit can be reduced to any value ... Read More
