As the questions says, is the C preprocessor able to do it?
E.g.:
#define PI 3.1416
#define OP PI/100
#define OP2 PI%100
Is there any way OP and/or OP2 get calculated in the preprocessing phase?
Can the C preprocessor perform integer arithmetic?

Be carefull when doing arithmetic: add parenthesis.
#define SIZE4 4
#define SIZE8 8
#define TOTALSIZE SIZE4 + SIZE8
If you ever use something like:
unsigned int i = TOTALSIZE/4;
and expect i to be 3, you would get 4 + 2 = 6 instead. Add parenthesis:
#define TOTALSIZE (SIZE4 + SIZE8)
