simple program to create Orphan process

/*
 * Program to create orphan process @ Linux
 * getpid() gives process PID and 
 * getppid() gives process's parent ID 
 * here main() process ID is parent id is current shells PID
 * once process becomes orphan it is adopted by init process(it's PID is 1)
 */
 
#include<stdio.h>
#include<unistd.h>
int main()
{

 pid_t p;

/* create child process */
 p=fork();

 if(p==0) {
    /* fork() returns Zero to child */
    sleep(10);
 }
 printf("The child process pid is %d parent pid %d\n", getpid(), getppid());
/*parent/child waits for 20 secs and exits*/
 sleep(20);
 printf("\nProcess %d is done its Parent pid %d...\n", getpid(), getppid());

 return 0;
}

O/p
shiv@ubuntu:~/ds/unix$ ./a.out
The child process pid is 2575 parent pid 1922
The child process pid is 2576 parent pid 2575

Process 2575 is done its Parent pid 1922...

Process 2576 is done its Parent pid 1...
