Answer 6

Then you will have to learn about some new data types like HANDLE, HWND, HFILE, LPCSTR, LPSTR etc. Also, you should know how to call a function from some given header file. All API functions are collected in windows.h (YOU WILL HAVE TO INSTALL WINDOWS SDK FOR THIS)

Note: Download Windows SDK for you specific version of OS. For Ex. if you are using Windows 7, you will need WinSDK v7.1
