What is a namespace?
and can we use the same method in C language too??

inside your header file you can have several sections and you have to name these sections even if there is only one section. Each section in header file is called a namespace.
I don't know about C.

In C++, you can follow these steps to create a header file:
step1: create a new file like myheader.h
step2: include necessary header files
step3: create a namespace as follows
namespace mynamespace{
codes for your free functions ...
}
step4: add some functions inside your namespace.
step5: add more namespaces if you need.
now you can include this header file in your program and use its functions.

In the C language you can create a header file with extension (.h) in which you put all your functions and then in the main file with extension (.c) you put the name of the header file between " " and not between < > as the standard header files.
example: #include <stdio.h> // standard header file
#include "function.h"// user-defined header file
ps : namespace in c++ language is the same stdio.h in c language and it's the header file which contains the input and output standard functions.

I believe only C derived languages support header files.
You can read up in C languages with this app. But simply put, header files just contain prototypes functions for the related class and helps for compiling.
Hence, just define your own class.
