'Permission denied' while running C programs on MS Visual Studio Code in Debian x64 Stable.

Hello!
I am a noob in Linux, learning C programming. So, I started out searching for an IDE and tried out the popular (Eclipse, Netbeans, Kdevelop, Monodevelop, Anjuta). Some of them, I couldn't start building project, Monodevelop crashed etc etc. I liked Visual Code and it started fine, so built the basic 'Hello world!' program. Lo and behold! 'Permission denied'. Here's the output

Code:

$ /home/user/Hello.c
bash: /home/user/Hello.c: Permission denied

What should I do to get my codes running?
Thank you!

Code:

$ chmod -x /home/user/Hello.c

This is an answer to the error message but most likely not to your problem. As you need to make/compile your code.
What's your code and the source of it?
