That's a good point. Maybe both options A and B could work, depending on the specific requirements of the program.

But don't we need to specify the arguments argc and argv in the main function for it to work properly?

Haha, I bet the exam writers just want to see if we're paying attention. 'void main()' is so 1990s, but I bet someone will still choose it.

I disagree, I believe option B) int main (int c, char *v[]) is the correct choice.

Hmm, I wonder if the exam will accept 'int main(int argc, char **argv)' as an alternative to A and B. It's the same thing, just a different syntax.

I think option A) int main (int argc, char *argv[]) will make the program work correctly.

Yeah, D is a bit of a wild card. I'd avoid it just to be safe, though. A, B, and C are the way to go.

I think D is also a valid option. Some compilers still accept the outdated 'void main()' declaration.

The correct options are A, B, and C. The program needs a valid main function declaration to work properly.
