Sample Programs

The document contains several C and C++ programs demonstrating process creation and management using the fork() system call. It illustrates various scenarios such as creating child processes, handling orphan and zombie processes, executing commands with execvp, and performing calculations in parent and child processes. Each program includes print statements to show the process IDs and results of operations performed by the parent and child processes.
