Returning zero values is ok, and can save some stack clean-up if the definition is called stand-alone (i.e. as a procedure). After functions are defined, the main code for the module follows. The main code will be executed as soon as the module is loaded. For library modules, this is a good place to do any runtime initialization, before any of the exported functions are called. The last statement in the module must be done, or else a compile error is issued.
