Library
A collection of user-made pre-written programs, modules, and Functions that serve a thematic or correlated purpose.
Similar to how books are organized by genre; libraries organize code by function.
For Example: C <stdio.h> Library
#include <stdio.h> // use a directive to include library functions in the program
int main(void)
{
printf("Hello World!"); // printf() is a function found in the stdio.h library!
}
- for more information, see stdio.h.
- for example, in Linux, the C standard library is stored in
/usr/lib/libc.
When we use double quotation marks
"relative.h", we are looking within the current working Directory for the relative.h header file.
