The C Preprocessor: The preprocessor provides facilities for including source code from other files (useful in separate compilation and when using library routine) and for doing conditional compilation (which is used frequently when writing portable code). It also provides a powerful macro facility, which can be very useful to declare symbolic constants. Any preprocessor command starts with pound sign ( # ) which forms the beginning of the preprocessor command. The carriage return forms the end of any preprocessor command. Now, we will consider only two of the C preprocessors' capabilities; text inclusion, and simple text substitution. Text inclusion: Look at this program: void main (void) printf("Hello World!\n"); Notice that the printf function has not been defined anywhere. The printf is part of a set function used for standard input and output. These functions are defined in a separate file known as the standard library. In order to use these functions correctly, a source code file requires information about their parameters and return type. This information is provided in a header file called stdio.h. All the information in the stdio.h can be brought into a source code file by use of a preprocessor include operation. #include
