what is the usage of extern in c
#include <stdio.h>
extern int x = 32;
int b = 8;
int main() {
auto int a = 28;
extern int b;
printf("The value of auto variable : %d\n", a);
printf("The value of extern variables x and b : %d,%d\n",x,b);
x = 15;
printf("The value of modified extern variable x : %d\n",x);
return 0;
}extern c++
// extern basically defines a global variable.
//fileA.cpp
int i = 42; // declaration and definition
//fileB.cpp
extern int i; // declaration only. same as i in FileA
//fileC.cpp
extern int i; // declaration only. same as i in FileA
//fileD.cpp
int i = 43; // LNK2005! 'i' already has a definition.
extern int i = 43; // same error (extern is ignored on definitions)Copyright © 2021 Codeinu
