I have seen that writing anything after the completion of any
pre-processor compiler directive does not affect either compilation or
running of the program.
i.e.
#include<conio.h> 123as!#@
#define M 100 *&^asdf
is perfectly valid.
How can such athing happen ?

the compiler does not evaluate macros until used. If you coded something like below your compiler would complain bitterly at you
