Understanding Pre-Processor Directives

The document discusses pre-processor directives in C programming, covering topics such as file inclusion, modularity, debugging, and macro definitions. It provides examples of code demonstrating these concepts, including the use of the 'printf' function and conditional compilation with debugging. Overall, it serves as a guide for understanding how pre-processor directives enhance code organization and functionality.
