What is a Pipe and when it is used?

Answer»

The pipe is generally a connection among TWO or more processes that are interrelated to each other. It is a mechanism that is used for inter-process communication using message PASSING.  One can easily send information such as the OUTPUT of one PROGRAM process to another program process using a pipe. It can be used when two processes want to communicate one-way i.e., inter-process communication (IPC).
