 // This is the main program
 // 
 // Compile:
 // gcc -o playExternCaller playExternCaller.c playExtern.c
 //
 // Illustrates that the proper way to make a truly global variable
 // is to use the extern keyword. 
 // declare it with the extern keywork in the header file of the file that gets to 
 // claim some sort of ownership over the variable.
 // then define it (i.e. give it a value) in the .c file
 // then other files that want to use it include the .h file and can use it, with ]
 // all files referring to the same variable in the same location of memory.

#include "playExtern.h"

//extern int glbA; // can include but don't need because we include this
// when we #include playExtern.h
// int glbA; // not appropriate way
// We do not need to declare glbA because we included playExtern.h
