Are library functions actually a part of C language.Explain?

Thank U!!!

Are library functions actually a part of C language.Explain?
Oh yes... see when u r so much into programming mindset... wouldnt it be irritating to repeat the bulky codings for a simple input and output statements... so only developers have written a common source codes for these and have included them in files called header files and they r called library functions 'cos they can be referenced by anybody any time......(called header 'cos they r at the top position), and its simple now... just include them in ur programs and u don have to repeat codes for clrscr(),printf(),scanf(),getch()... etc...


p.s: it is a chance we have '.h' as the extension for these files...
Reply:yes very much
Reply:Not all of them,..ANSI standrad C lists a set of library functions..(that are machine architecture independent) that are counted as part of C language..


while there are several other libraries that are not necessarially part of C language
