System.exit 0 or 1?

[antgaudi]

What is the difference b/w:
System.exit(0);
and
System.exit(1);

If I have the following code:
public class MathMistake
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
int num = 13, denom = 0, result;
if (denom == 0)
System.exit(1);
result = num / denom;
}
}


Would I get the same result if I use the 0 or 1 for System.exit? :confused:

Thanks.

Easiest way to find out is try it yourself. Try to find the differences but if you still not sure post back. :P

Are you try that? If so what happen, what's the difference you have noticed in two cases?

The number is the "exit code" of the program. Generally 0 means the program executed and exited normally. Other than zero usually means an error occurred. Most programs use different exit codes for different "abnormal" exits and document them, that allows the program to be used in a script and evaluate it's exit status without having to do any kind of text evaluations.
