Of course. Is this a test, or just a joke?

The code won't compile because you say: int void main().
Get rid of the void. You're returning a value from the
function so the function isn't void -- it returns a
value.

Also change 4096 to 8000, or 8000 to 4096. Then figure
out why that works and what you had didn't.
