Melu h> is meant for system headers, while #include "something. h" is for headers of your own program. System headers are searched for in usual system directories (and those included with -I argument), which your headers are searched for in current directory and then the same locations as system headers.

When you put a header file in quotes " " , the compiler will search for the header file in the current file path, whereas when put inside <>, it searches for it in global library path. generally angle brackets(<>) are used to include standard headers and double quotes for custom headers.
