operator to determine the maximum of two numbers and explain how the operator simplifies the
code.

3. Discuss the concepts of type conversion and typecasting in C. Explain the difference between
implicit type conversion and explicit typecasting with examples. How do these practices affect
the behavior and output of expressions?

4. Describe the basic file handling functions in C, including fopen(), fclose(), fread(), and fwrite().
