While designing a webpage, where should I put the following code?

<link rel=stylesheet type="text/css" href="css/layout.css">

Should I put it in the <head> or should I put it in the <body>? Please clarify the following questions:

  1. What difference does it make if I put it in <head> or anywhere else around the HTML code?
  2. What if I am having two CSS (or Javascript) files? Since I can only include one file before another one, which file will be used by the web-browser to display the webpage?

Regarding your responses, the CSS link is written akin to other head elements.

<head>
  <link href="css.script " rel="stylesheet" />
 </head>

1.Most popularly put in the head as it will augment compiling proficiency. 2.Placed in the body or later in the HTML text primarily for convenience.
