NAME

        abort - cause abnormal program termination
 

SYNOPSIS

        #include <stdlib.h>
 
        void abort(void);
 

DESCRIPTION

        The  abort()  function  causes  abnormal program termination unless the
        signal SIGABRT is caught and the signal handler does  not  return.   If
        the  abort()  function causes program termination, all open streams are
        closed and flushed.
 
        If the SIGABRT signal is blocked or ignored, the abort() function  will
        still override it.
        The abort() function never returns.
