Re: Comparison of files

Header files are files that are included in other files prior to compilation by the C preprocessor.Header files also can contain declaration of data and functions. A library is a collection of functions contained within a single file. Each library has a header file, which contains the prototypes of the functions contained within the library that may be used by a program.
