I supose you tried gcc source.c -o program

man gcc

Re: how can I compile C code?

type

gcc nameoffile.c
and if you need c++ you can install g++

then just type
g++ nameoffile.cpp

Re: how can I compile C code?

Here's what I did.....

I used adept to get the latest version of gcc, g++, and then I made sure that I downloaded the lastest libraries, the ones for development.
After you are done, you can test whether it will work or not by running the command:

ls -l /usr/bin/gcc* , and note the version of your compiler. Now try to compile a "hello world" program with the command:
/usr/bin/gcc"whatever version you found" and if you are updated it should compile.

Also, once everything is updated, notice that the command to compile will be gcc-4.3? or whatever, not gcc. So what I did is make a link to gcc-4.X in /usr/bin:

ln -s gcc-4.0 gcc

Don't trust my syntax- do a man for ln-
I did the same thing for g++ and now I can compile
I just use gcc in the command line now.

Good luck.

This really isnt a Kubuntu question ... you should be posting to comp.lang.c ... although theyll bite your head off if you ask such a question over there.

Are you sure you are including <stdio.h> rather than "stdio.h"?

#include <stdio.h>

int main(int argc, char *argv [])
{
 printf("Hello\n");
 return 0;
}

$ gcc -o hello hello.c
$ ./hello

will work.

Can you

$ locate stdio.h

(it should be in /usr/include).
