void main or int main

[adesh]

I was thinking if it is right to use void main or int main for the
main()

All the programs in my book use void main() { ......

whereas when i searched in the net i found that
we cannot use void as a return type for main()

My question is , which is correct (void or int )?

int main() is standard and is therefore 'correct' if you want standard code.

Edit:
What book are you using?
