I input "abcd" follows by an EOF(Ctrl + d) instead of pressing enter,

My question is why doesn't the program end the first it encounters the
EOF after the "abcd"?
This is really a question about your operating system, not about C.
Unix behaves as you describe - the EOF key only sends EOF after a
newline or another EOF.
And also if I DO press enter after "abcd", do I pass the characters
'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', '\n' to the program?
Yes. This is the usual situation. Pressing EOF without a newline
first is a way of sending a line without a newline at the end.
