NOTE: if possible please type the code. Also keep in mind about special cases for example:

If there is a "//" or "/**/" between quotation marks, they should not be treated as comments.

Test case:

// Comment

/* A long

comment */

printf("Hello /* Not a comment */ World!");

Output:

printf("Hello /* Not a comment */ World!");

WRONG Output:

printf("Hello World!");

(30pt) Write a C program, remove_comments.cpp that removes comments from a given C program that is assumed to be correct. Your program will accept one input file in the command line: $ remove_comments input_C_source.cpp and will write the output in the file input_c_source_rem.cpp. There are two types of comments: (1) // ... ENTER and (2) /* ... */. Your program should remove all instances of both types from any possible C source code file. You are not allowed to use any tools to build your program; it has to be written by hand
