I have been doing c and c++ programming in windows with turbo c/c++ compiler , but now i have switched to ubuntu 11.04.
Could somebody help me doing c++ programming with linux terminal.
Thanx in advance.
u need to first install gcc to run c or c++ programme:-
to install gcc run this command:
$sudo apt-get install gcc
once gcc is installed check if it's working by running this command :
$gcc
if it shows no input file gcc is working.
than u can make a sample c programme:
$gedit test.c
enter this in test.c
#include<stdio.h>
void main()
{
printf("\nHello World!\n");
}
than save file and return to terminal
run to this command to compile c programme:
$gcc test.c
to make a output file run this command
$gcc test.c -o test
to execute compile programme run this:
./test
Foremost you have to make sure you distinguish between C/C++ and
Borland features. We get so many inquiries here regarding such
and such feature not working in Linux, it's not even funny :}
