solve ( ) function

By decoder__, history, 6 years ago, In English

I have seen in many people's code that they use a solve function instead of writing the logic in the main function. What advantage it has over writing the code directly in the main function?

You can use return directly in solve() in case there are test cases, while in int main() you can't

I personally use it because you can easily end the function with return(end).

I think it doesnt have obvious advantages. But many people are used to it since it looks comfortable. After all, the choice is up to you.

Isn't it too obvious? Asking everything sucks

What is there in it to downvote except colortag?
