need help with C

[bxsci(macuser)]

i have next to no expiriance in programming so i could really use some help here...

 

i typed in the hello world program to Xcode

 

#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)

{

printf("Hello world!");

return 0;

}

 

that...

 

and then i compiled using terminal ( cc -c hello.c)

 

and i got hello.o

 

which seemed fine - but then how do i execute the file from there?

[np101137]

compile with this command:

gcc hello.c

 

 

You will get a file called a.out

 

run that in terminal, you should be fine

you should also link it, you could skip the -c option and add -o filename to make an executable named filename.

if you pick the C standard tool option when you make a project in xcode. There is a Build & Run option which will automatically compile and execute the program in a nice terminal window.
