Thread: Help needed with fork operation

Code:

#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
main(void)
{
    if(fork())
    {//parent process
        printf("Parent process\n");
        printf("par:%d\n",getpid());
    }
    else 
    {//child process
        printf("Child process\n");
        printf("Child :%d    Parent:%d\n",getpid(),getppid());
    }
}

When we use fork() function, a child process is created. In this case what will status of 'program counter' of a child process (when started).

I know that the child process contains the code of else block,but I don't know why it is so.

Code:

#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
main(void)
{
printf("ID:%d\n",getpid());
    if(fork()==0)
    {//exclusively child is created?
    printf("par:%d    child:%d\n",getppid(),getpid());
    }
}

In the above code, how the contents of the if block belongs to a child process.
