Your questions are general C programming questions. A number of sites exist which thrive on questions like this.

No, this is incorrect. It is a poor idea to declare variables within header files. This bad practice will lead to linker errors due to duplicate definitions. One solution is to define all global variables in a single *.c file & place extern statements to each of these global variables in a header file which can then be included as many times in as many places as you choose. Here, all global variables are defined only once which is required.
