How do I know if I have gcc?

Hi I have Fedora 11 x86-64
How do I check what compilers I have and what are their versions and what linkers too?

Thank you in advance.

which gcc
which g++
gcc --version

?

And what about getting familiar with your package manager ?

yum list installed | grep gcc
yum list installed | grep c++

and 'yum list installed > installed-packages.txt'
will make a text file in /home/"user"

rpm -qa --last > last--packages.txt
will also show when you installed the packages.
.....
The linker 'ld' is in the package 'binutils'
rpm -ql binutils
will display the file list.
