Une fonction avec un type n'Ă©tant pas void doit toujours renvoyer une valeur, or ici ce n'est pas toujours le cas. À noter qu'en corrigeant cette erreur, l'exĂ©cution n'afficherait toujours pas "Success !" car cette instruction est placĂ©e aprĂšs un return qui stoppe l'exĂ©cution d'une fonction. Ce n'est plus vrai ?

This one is wrong, it doesn't display anything since it displays the std::cout of the int function, which works without error, and then it exits directly without displaying the std::cout of the body of the main function. But there's no error! It's the behavior expected by the written code! So a, b, c and d are totaly false

I tried running code : https://onlinegdb.com/83niPB7ou And it doesn't throw a compilation error like the author was stating. The question might be obsolete.
