Some buildings, such as offices, schools, business' etc have an internal phone system, to enable communication inside, without using the commercial phone system and therefore do not incur costs. This is a sort of intercom system, that uses normal wired phones. Calls to a phone may be from another phone within the building, or may be from someone calling from outside. This is an EXTERNAL call. This is called a Private Automatic Branch eXchange. PABX
In this system, the phone defaults to making internal calls. If you pick up the phone and dial a number, it will direct the call to someone else on the internal system. To make an outside (normal) call, you usually have to switch to an outside line (EXTERNAL). This is normally done by pressing '9' first (other numbers may be used), wait for another dial tone, then make your EXTERNAL call.

How do you call an external function or program that is written in different programming language?

It doesn't matter what language the external program or function was written in since all executables must be converted to machine code. To execute an external function, that function must reside in a library to which your program is linked and you must know the prototype of the function you intend to call. This is usually found in the library header file which can simply be included in your program. You can then call the external function just as you would an internal function. To execute a specific function in another program, however, you must use the command line interface for that program.
