dynamic Link library ( dll ) are modules where we store data and function. in dll there are two types of functions. exported , internal exported can be used from the main application. dll is used by application .exe files

A dll is a binary module that sits on the computer as a separate file from the exe program. It can be shared, ie can be used by different executable programs, so this reduced the overall disk space usage. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/124549/what-exactly-are-dll-files-and-how-do-they-work
