Preprocessor is a parser which parses the code before
compilation.It describes path of compilation,includes the
definitions of standard C functions and subustuites the
variables depending on the pre processor directive
used.Also can be used to output the comments and error
messages during compilation.

Answer / achal
Each of the above answers is partially correct. A
Preprocessor is a software tool. You include many
preprocessor directives in your program.
e.g. include directives , #define, #ifdef , #pragma for
conditional compilation. All these things are taken care by
this tool. It comes into picture before compiler.

Answer / priya
In computer science, a preprocessor is a program that processes its input data to produce output that is used as input to another program. The output is said to be a preprocessed form of the input data, which is often used by some subsequent programs like compilers.

we are going to use in our program
#include<stdio.h>
will tell the compiler that it include header file standard
input output

Answer / harika.thota001@gmail.com
The preprocessor provides the ability for the inclusion of header files, macro expansions, conditional compilation, and line control.
In many C implementations, it is a separate program invoked by the compiler as the first part of translation.
