   Word Origin mid 16th century (as a stage direction): from Latin exit ‘he or she goes out’, third person singular present tense of exire, from ex- ‘out’ + ire ‘go’. The noun (late 16th century) is from Latin exitus ‘going out’, from the verb exire, and the other verb uses (early 17th century) derive from it.

   stackoverflow.com › questions › 22586250

   Mar 23, 2014 · The macros EXIT_SUCCESS and EXIT_FAILURE expand into integral expressions that either indicate successful or unsuccessful execution of the program.

   stackoverflow.com › questions › 3463551

   Aug 11, 2010 · The difference between the forms is that exit() (and return from main) calls functions registered using atexit() or on_exit() before really terminating the process while _exit() (from #include <unistd.h>, or its synonymous _Exit from #include <stdlib.h>) terminates the process immediately. Now there are also issues that are specific to C++.

   stackoverflow.com › questions › 461449

   316. Actually, there is a difference, but it's subtle. It has more implications for C++, but the differences are important. When I call return in main(), destructors will be called for my locally scoped objects. If I call exit(), no destructor will be called for my locally scoped objects! Re-read that. exit() does not return.

    Dec 2, 2012 · exit(1) (usually) indicates unsuccessful termination. However, its usage is non-portable. For example, on OpenVMS, exit(1) actually indicates success.
