ANSWER
<RETURN>is correct answer. In most modern programming languages <RETURN> keyword
indicates the end of method or a function. Entry point (or main method) is
represented in the form of function - it has its scope, bounds and returning
value. For example, in common windows console applications returned value
determines the result of program ending:
- <0>means that program was successfully ended.
- <1>means that program was emergency closed.
