{
fork();
printf("Hello World!");
}
Hello World!Hello World!

Frage 40. How can a parent and child process communicate?
A parent and child can communicate through any of the normal inter-process communication schemes (pipes, sockets, message queues, shared memory), but also have some special ways to communicate that take advantage of their relationship as a parent and child. One of the most obvious is that the parent can get the exit status of the child.
fork();
printf("Hello World!");
}
