SYNOPSIS
exit [expression]
DESCRIPTION
exit terminates the KornShell. If there is an expression, the value of the expression is the exit status of the shell.
On a POSIX-compliant system, the value of expression should be between 0 and 255. The exit command raises the EXIT trap, unless exit is being invoked inside an EXIT trap.
DIAGNOSTICS
exit returns the value of the arithmetic expression to the parent process as the exit status of the shell. If you omit expression, it returns the exit status of the last command executed.

Allowing an expression rather than just a number is an extension found in the KornShell.
