Conditional Compilation in C Code

Conditional compilation allows selective code compilation based on specified conditions using directives like #if, #ifdef, #ifndef, #else, #elif, and #endif. This technique is useful for including or excluding code for debugging or platform-specific purposes. An example demonstrates how to use the DEBUG directive to print a message when debugging is enabled.
