In this tutorial, we will discuss a program to create a directory or folder using a C/C program.

To create a new directory, we will use the mkdir() command. Please note that the given code only works with the Windows compiler.

#include <conio.h>
#include <dir.h>
#include <process.h>
#include <stdio.h>
void main(){
   int check;
   char* dirname = "tutorialspoint";
   clrscr();
   check = mkdir(dirname);
   //checking if directory is created
   if (!check)
      printf("Directory created\n");
   else {
      printf("Unable to create directory\n");
      exit(1);
   }
   getch();
   system("dir/p");
   getch();
}
