exit() causes the program to exit with the argument as return value.
The return statement only returns from a function to its caller. In
main(), this amounts to exiting the program. close() is for closing
files opened with open().
Use the command "man" to view the manual for these function. Running
"man exit" will give information on the exit() function, etc.
