Your Answer for Question 1:
a preprocessor is a program that runs before the compiler and which handles pre-processors directives. Preprocessor directives are given on lines begining with a '#' The most common preprocessor directive is "#include". since the include is in c, the input is c. i believe it should be the first to run for the rest of the program to run.


Your Answer for Question 2:
Generally, while programming in C one hardly considers what the compiler does beneath the abstraction. I claim that the C programmer would not be impacted in any way because whether or not the compiler does the functions of the assembler or linker doesn't influence anything in the coding process.
