Hi Ashu you are right ! Hello world should be print only ones! but it's printing twice as when printf executes it does not send data to output buffer.
IMHO, it does send the data to the buffer. Due to the fork, the new task(child) gets a copy of the buffer (which already contains the 'Hello World!' string). This(fork()) is where the duplication occurs. Further printfs in the two tasks lead to flushing of their respective buffers to the console. With a '\n' after 'Hello World!', the child would get an empty buffer to begin with. CMIIW.
