actually main function is a user defined function for the C
compiler developer.... but it is a built in or predefined
function according to the users using that compiler.... why
it is called as a predefined function because , the
prototype has already been defined in the compiler itself
we the users can't change the meaning of that unless or
until we write our own compiler , we can change the meaning
of main()......
for the main() , we don't know what is the prototype or
where the function has been called and wht excatly the
return value of it... it is built in and abstracted from the
user which is called abstraction in c++.........
thank u

Answer / sandeep kumar yadav
the definition of main is given by the user so it is called
user define function..
the prototype is define by the compiler so it is called
predefine...
this function is dependent on both user and compiler for
the execution of the program.so it is not only user define
or predefine..
so we can say it is a special function called by operating
system to execute the program.

Main() is a predeclared userdefined function,bcoz according to formal case the declaration of main is done already with a definite name which the user cannot chnge..but in later case the body or the definition of which is given by the user accordng to his need..i.e.:main is a pre declared user defined function.

Answer / mayank jain
Main() is a user define function because user define it, and main is a keyword that is predefined, that also tell the compiler for the execution of program is starting from here.
when we Write the program we never declare the main function anywhere, only define it.

Answer / s.s.venkatesh
the main() is a predefined function because we can't change
the name of the function or characterstics of the function.
If the function is user defined means we can change the
name of the function as we wish.
So,the main() is a predefined function.

Answer / chitaranjan barik
Main() is a predefined
function,because it's
prototype,call function,
returning val -all these
parameters only kown
to compile,not to
user.but we can use it
as user defined by
specifying our own
parameter

Answer / vilas soni++
main() is predefined function, coz we can't change it's
prototype....
We can only implement it.... And we have to use main() in
our program coz it's "Entry Point" to any C program....
(We can say userdefined, if we can also define it's
prototype and name, and in this case we can't!, we can use
only available types of main()....)

Write a C program that defines a 2-dimentional integer array called A [50][50]. Then the elements of this array should randomly be initialized either to 1 or 0. The program should then print out all the elements in the diagonal (i.e. a[0][0], a[1][1],a[2][2], a[3][3], ……..a[49][49]). Finally, print out how many zeros and ones in the diagonal.
