头文件是c++自己定义库函数的地方,虽然它定义的函数的方式我们看不懂,但是像int,char,memset等函数都是他在头文件里给你编好的,下边给大家看一下我们熟悉的iostream头文件里面是什么样的:

iostream库里面就定义了我们所熟知的cin和cout函数
其他的还有cerr,clog,wcin,wcout,wcerr,wclog等等函数。而有些人就不太明白了,那头文件还能导入头文件吗?
答案是肯定的,因为它里面的一些函数如static,extern,namespace等函数也需要引入头文件,因为里面定义函数的过程过于深奥,所以不在这里过多讲述。
下面再给大家啃一个不同的头文件内部:

#endif /* _GLIBCXX_STRING */
这个头文件就是属于很多人也都知道的<string>头文件,看到这个头文件,你们有没有发现什么?对了,就是这个头文件string基本都是由其他的头文件组成的,什么<bits/range_access.h>等等的头文件。引入头文件就相当于把这个头文件拥有了其他头文件的能力,这个能力指的就是其他头文件定义的函数,数据类型等。我们的程序要导入头文件也是同一个原因。
那头文件有没有基本上都是程序的呢?也有。再来看下一个:

这个是一个不太知名的头文件<ostream_insert.h>头文件,他基本全是由代码组成,也就是定义的函数和数据类型较多,导入的头文件较少。
接下来就到了一个重头戏:如何导入头文件?
这个问题可能有些人看完前面的就已经有答案了,就是#include+<导入头文件名称>就行了。
十分简单。
