Where headers files are generally stored?

It depends on the header file and on the general organization of the project. System header files, such as stdio.h or windows.h, are stored in a directory that the compiler knows about, but that you don't need to even think about. Library header files are either stored in the same place that system header files are stored, or they are stored in a place reserved for the particular library. In the latter case, there will usually be build parameters that identify the header files and their associated library files. User header files are either stored in the same directory as the source files, or they can be stored in a related directory, somewhere in the project directory tree. well in most of the DOS/Windows C/C++ compilers predefined header files are stored in INCLUDE directory of the folder containing the compiler


Why to use header file to easy know?

in the java as we use the inheritance property in the same way we can get the the inheritance property in c by using the prepared header files( .h files). there a single program in c use the many methods of many header files like math.h give us to use the use of floor(), sqrt() e.t.c. functions..

How can you create a c program without using header file?

C programs do not require header files. If you want a C program without header files, you can simply not create them. However, you may or may not be able to include your non-header file source files.


Is header file the library file?

No. Header files are those which contains declaration part of function & library files are those which contains definition part of function. These are those functions which we called in our program by using header files.


When is header file executed and why?
