C Preprocessing

bookRole of the Preprocessor

To take advantage of the capabilities of preprocessing, the C language uses special instructions - directives.

Each directive begins with a symbolic hash #. You have already encountered preprocessor directives when connecting the built-in standard input/output library (stdio.h).

Preprocessor directives allow you to include files, define constants, and conditionally compile parts of the code. They are essential for organizing and optimizing the compilation process.
