Understanding Special Macros in Target Rule Sets

In target rule sets, before issuing any commands, a set of predefined special macros is provided. These macros play a crucial role in file handling: `$@` represents the name of the file to be created; `$?` lists the names of the changed dependents; `$<` indicates the name of the related file that triggered the action; `$*` denotes the shared prefix between the target and the dependent files. Understanding these macros is essential for effective automation and build processes in software development.
