\nThe following is according to my understanding.<\/p>\n
\nIn c programming, one might need to include one or more header files that define functions, constants, etc. They are included, for example, using #include “a_header.h” or with #include <some_standard_header.h>.<\/p>\n
\nWhy, in some cases, is the header enclosed in quotes, while in others, in angle brackets? The quotes indicate the header file will be included in a given directory (the current one, perhaps), while the angle brackets indicate a library that’s already defined and standard in the c language. The compiler, typically, will know where to find such a file within the c installation.<\/p>\n
