First printf statement executes the abc when the second printf execute the first carriage return will place the cursor at the beginning of line then abc will be overridden with dec.

If it puts the cursor at the beginning of line then how output comes "dec"?

Ex:
printf("abc");
printf("\rde");
Then output is: dec.
printf("abc");
printf("\rde");
Then output is: dec.

Carriage return is '\r'.
It puts the cursor to the beginning of the line *while run time*.
