Simple Os Checker

Here's a little program that tests if your Operating system is Windows or Linux.

code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

#ifdef _WIN32
#define SYS "Windows"
#endif

#ifdef linux
#define SYS "Linux"
#endif

main(){
printf("\nThe Operating system That Your pc is running is: %s", SYS);
getch();
return 0;
}

What about OSX or Unix or any other system? Do 64 bit versions of Windows still define _WIN32?

im running on windows 64 bit, the program will still tell u if running windows or linux

not sure about mac's yet gonna figure that out later.

not sure about unix thing though.

Edit:

I don't have a Mac so if some 1 that does will add this code after line 19
and let us know if it identifies the Os as mac

code:

#ifdef OSX
#define SYS "Mac"
#endif
