Yes. We can include files of extension .C also if any function or external variable is defined in other file and we want to use it in the current file.

Thanks for the question Pankaj...... The pre-processor will include any file you specify inside #include statement but however it is recommended not to use any other extension except .h or .hpp in an #include statement. Thanks, Team DishaaPro www.dishaapro.com
