<hr>
The include preprocessor will add source code to your existing source. This 
is used to include <i>header</i> files that contain function declarations.
For example:<p>
<pre>
	#include &lt;stdio.h&gt;
	main()
	printf("hi peeps");
	}
</pre>
The <i>printf</i> function declaration is held in stdio.h<p>
There are two ways of defining the include files location.
<ul>
<li>&lt;&gt;says to the preprocessor that the file is in the system libraries.
<pre>
	#include &lt;stdio.h&gt;
</pre>
	
<li>&quot;&quot;means that this is a user defined file. Absolute or relative
paths may be defined.
<pre>
	#include &quot;myheaders.h&quot;
	#include &quot;/usr/home/leslim/myheaders.h&quot;
</pre>
</ul>
