Yes.

I'm curious. I can see the print part easily enough, but how are you
going to handle the return statement? (Email reply welcome if you don't
want to spoil the OP's fun.)

There is no need for a return statement.

Oh. *That* kind of program. Count me out.

I'm not sure what you mean by "that" kind. You don't need a return statement
in a strictly conforming C90 program that prints "HELLOWORLD " and exits
successfully.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main(void) {
puts("HELLOWORL D");
exit(0);
}

Getting rid of the semicolons for the exit call can be done the same way as
for puts.

For top notch credit see if you can return EXIT_FAILURE if the puts call
fails.

[sravan_reddy001]

void main()
{
if(printf("Hell o World")){}
}

this is the simple way. and even u can assign the values without using
semi-colon. if() is the best to use among

Alas, it doesn't conform to the specification, which called for a C
program.

Correction: *you* might not need a return statement there, but if I
can't have one there, I'm taking my ball home.
