In Program 1 Hello world gets printed just once, but when I remove \n and run it (Program 2), the output gets printed 8 times. Can someone please explain me the significance of \n here and how it affects the fork().

Program 1

#include <sys/types.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main()
{
    printf("hello world...\n");
    fork();
    fork();
    fork();
}

Output 1:

hello world... 

Program 2

#include <sys/types.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main()
{
    printf("hello world...");
    fork();
    fork();
    fork();
}

Output 2:

hello world... hello world...hello world...hello world...hello world...hello world...hello world...hello world...
