Could you please explain me about this start and _start function what is it
about ? Is it like entry point of the code ?


start is the entry point and it calls _start (which has the name __start in the assembly). See <http://www.opensource.apple.com/source/Csu/Csu-58.1.1/start.s > and <http://www.opensource.apple.com/source/Csu/Csu-58.1.1/crt.c>.
