if you have coded in c, then its the directive statement which usually comes in the begining like<br />
#define ADD(x,y) x+y<br />
<br />
So wherever in the code you have ADD(x,y) it is replaced by x+y while compiling.<br />
Note x and y can be any integers.<br />
YOu can also define constant using this directive.<br />
<br />
Similarly other preprocessors are #include<br />
used to import other code/header files.

Hello<br />
<br />
I was asked in an interview if C# uses makros or a preprocessor? Now...i had no idea what those things are...i just answered &quot;with C# you can use pre-processing directives...like the region one i saw generated by Visual Studio.Net..so it's not macros&quot;<br />
<br />
what are the macros and how are they used?<br />
<br />
Thanks

Makros?

C# is an object-oriented programming language created in conjunction with Microsoft’s .NET framework. Compilation is usually done into the Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL), which is then JIT-compiled to native code (and cached) during execution in the Common Language Runtime (CLR).
