+Header files are an important part of c as they allow for the connection of c
+source files and can simplify code and definitions by seperating them into
+seperate files.

+Header files are syntaxtically similar to c source files but reside in ".h"
+files. They can be included in your c source file by using the precompiler
+command #include "example.h", given that example.h exists in the same directory
+as the c file.
