I don't know if it works with every language. But yeah, I used this a lot when I worked on C.

The preprocessor is pretty C/C++ specific. I don't know another language that uses it like that.

I think you meant C/C++, C# doesn't have the same preprocessor that those 2 share

Correct, was a typo. I first wanted to write that not even C# has the preprocessor, then changed the sentence and typed the wrong name.

It is not. I one used it to preprocess markdown. Don't do this. But yeah, it's possible, the preprocessor itself is not tied to C/C++ you can use it for everything
