main is defined in both task.c and firstcode.c (assuming those are the source code file names)

[echo crescent]

u only can have 1 main func

[still tapir]

Main is your main function
If you want to do multiple tasks you better look at threads

Sure you can, its just a matter of using your compiler correctly

Compile only one file at a time, and name the executables differently, and youre good to go

@echo crescent if any of that is confusing, let us know, and tell us what compiler/os youre using
