Q: What does an exit code of 0 mean?
Answers
- The program ended with an unspecified error.
- The program ended with a ValueError.
- The program ended with a TypeError.
- The program ended successfully.
Explanation: In a wide variety of programming languages and operating systems, including some that are similar to Unix, an exit code of 0 normally indicates that the program executed correctly and did not experience any issues during its termination. It is common practice to use the value 0 as the exit code to indicate that the execution was successful. When a program finishes its execution with a status code of 0, it indicates that it has successfully finished its work without any problems or deviations from the intended results.
