The compiler can only see one translation unit at a time, so every translation unit that calls a function (but does not define it) must at least declare that function. Headers allows us to share declarations consistently amongst many translation units with a simple #include directive.
Headers can also declare data types, aliases, constants and macros. Functions can also be defined in headers, but these must be declared inline.
Header files are not much different from usual cpp files. There are basically two different things. It's file extension: you need to choose "header file" when you create it or save as .h file. Second is header files do not have main() function. When you are done with you header file do not forger to include it in your project by writing preprocessor directive:#include "your_header_file.h"
Header file is a file which is meant to be included into another file during compilation. Examples: string.h, stdio.h, inttypes.h. Header pointer is a pointer to an object called header (for example header of a linked list).
The header file of graphics in TurboC is graphics.h
You do not need a header file to add two numbers in C. You do need the header files if you want to use the run-time library, which includes the ability to format and display the result.
You need to #include the header file that contains the missing function's declaration.
stdbool header file use for a new data type that is boolean value
The FILE type is declared in stdio.h.
Not possible. Always make backup copies.
Never, and the reason is that header files are not meant to be executed.
There is no system header called share.h, but if there were, it would be: #include <share.h>
header record
Yes, it is a plain text file.
