<p><a name="index-aborting-a-program-3140"></a>
You can abort your program using the <code>abort</code> function.  The prototype
for this function is in <samp><span class="file">stdlib.h</span></samp>.
<a name="index-stdlib_002eh-3141"></a>
<!-- stdlib.h -->
<!-- ISO -->

<div class="defun">
&mdash; Function: void <b>abort</b> (<var>void</var>)<var><a name="index-abort-3142"></a></var><br>
<blockquote><p>The <code>abort</code> function causes abnormal program termination.  This
does not execute cleanup functions registered with <code>atexit</code> or
<code>on_exit</code>.

        <p>This function actually terminates the process by raising a
<code>SIGABRT</code> signal, and your program can include a handler to
intercept this signal; see <a href="Signal-Handling.html#Signal-Handling">Signal Handling</a>.

<strong>Future Change Warning:</strong> Proposed Federal censorship regulations
may prohibit us from giving you information about the possibility of
calling this function.  We would be required to say that this is not an
acceptable way of terminating a program.
