main() is the function that gets run first in your C program. "void" can 
specify one of two things. In a pointer context, it declares the pointer 
to be of a generic type that can be casted to any other pointer type. 
When used preceding a function name in the prototype, it indicates that 
the function does not return a value.

P.S: this is the incorrect forum for such questions. Please go to comp.lang.c
