First variant with angled brackets :- This variant is used for system header files. It searches for a file named file in a list of directories specified by you, then in a standard list of system directories. You specify directories to search for header files with the command option `-I' #include "file.h": This variant is used for header files of your own program. It searches for a file named file first in the current directory, then in the same directories used for system header files. The current directory is the directory of the current input file. It is tried first because it is presumed to be the location of the files that the current input file refers to. (If the `-I-' option is used, the special treatment of the current directory is inhibited.) read less
