What does extern mean in a function declaration?

Answer Posted / swetcha

extern is significant only with data declarations. In
function declarations, it can be used as a stylistic hint
to indicate that the function's definition is probably in
another source file, but there is no formal difference
between

extern int f();

and
int f();
