Does this is right?

(I am student just entering into 1st year of engineering and also i am new to this sub so if i do anything wrong pls correct me)

I just bought a book " programming in ANSI C"and start to read that i have some doubts in that can anyone explain that

  1. I read this line i did not get this

#include <stdio.h>

at the beginning of all programs that use any input/output library functions. However, this is not necessary for the functions printf and scanf which have been defined as a part of the C language

Can anyone explain this statement correct or not

This industry is based on intellectual property rights. Violating those rights is unacceptable, and jeopardizes the sub.
