UNIX/LINUX Environment:
Requirements for UNIX are Terminal(ctrl+alt+t), Text editor like vim, gedit, emacs, …. And Compiler. Examples
are written by using Vim editor and compilation by GCC Compiler.
To install this, type the
command in terminal
“apt-get install vim “(for debian pkg) and
GCC is default one of the GNU
tools.
a. program
creation:
$vim filename.c
press insert and type the program in this file after completing press ESC
and :wq it save and exits from terminal.
b. Program
compilation:
$ gcc filename.c
After successful compilation you get binary file: a.out in that current
directory.
You want to give user defined name to binary then follow this
$ gcc filename.c -o user_name
After
successful compilation you get binary file: user_name in that current
directory.
c. Program execution:
$./a.out or
$./user_name.
Then Out put is
displayed in the terminal.
