Each of the above answers is partially correct. A
Preprocessor is a software tool. You include many

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.

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.
