C: Exit

Causes normal program termination to occur without completely cleaning the resources.

Destructors of variables with automatic, thread local and static storage durations are not called. Functions passed to std::at_quick_exit() or std::atexit() are not called. Whether open resources such as files are closed is implementation defined.

If exit_code is 0 or EXIT_SUCCESS, an implementation-defined status indicating successful termination is returned to the host environment. If exit_code is EXIT_FAILURE, an implementation-defined status, indicating unsuccessful termination, is returned. In other cases implementation-defined status value is returned.
