somy question is, **Is there two variable named x in the main ,one goes to g() with value 1 go there prints 2 and another one keeps at 1 again prints 2 in main. **
#include <stdio.h>
void f(){
extern int x;
x++;
printf("%d",x);
}
int x;
void g(){
++x;
printf("%d",x);
}
int main() {
// Write C code here
x++;
g();
printf("%d",x);
return 0;
}
Output : 22
Here x in main and the one defined outside g() in global scope are referring to the same x. Also the variable x is extern through out the code because of the previous declaration.
Try printing the address of x in the required location.

Is there two variable named x in the main
No, there is only one and it has static storage duration. It was defined just above the g() function definition.
You could check it yourself by adding something to your printfs:
void f(void)
{
extern int x;
x++;
printf("%d %p\n", x, (void *)&x);
}
int x;
void g(void)
{
++x;
printf("%d %p\n", x, (void *)&x);
}
int main(void)
{
x++;
g();
printf("%d %p\n", x, (void *)&x);
}
and the output:
2 0x40401c
2 0x40401c
xin the shown code. It's initialized to zero by the system (global non-constant variables are always "zero" initialized). It's increased to1in themainfunction. It's increased to2in thegfunction. Thegfunction prints its value. Then themainfunction print its value.
