Although the principles of compiler construction are largely indep enden t of this con text, the detailed. Functions can be instructed to compiler to make them inline so that compiler can replace those function definition wherever those are being called. Inline expansion is similar to macro expansion, but occurs during compilation, without changing the source code the text, while macro expansion occurs prior to compilation, and results in different text that is then processed by the compiler.
