    The extern keyword in C extends the visibility of variables and functions beyond the file in which they are declared so they can be accessed from other files in the program. It allows a variable or function to be declared without definition so its definition can exist in another file while still being accessible. Extern prevents variable name clashes when the same variable is defined in multiple files.
