C++ is the most widely taught programming language to students .Getting your c++ code to work desirably requires it to be compiled without any errors. Windows users who have shifted to Linux are habitual to GUIs compiler like geany,code-blocks,visual c++ etc and have no idea where to compile their c++ code. Our beloved Terminal comes to the rescue of these linux newbies. Its as simple as writing two lines of commands. First you need to install the compiler called g++. Fire up the terminal and type in following commands.
To install g++,type:
[me@linuxbox]$ sudo apt-get install build-essential
This command installs other essential packages too. Alternatively, you may also try:
[me@linuxbox usr]$ sudo apt-get install g++
Thats it, you're good to go with your c++ code. Suppose you have a file called hello.cpp. To compile this program , type in:
[me@linuxbox usr]$ g++ hello.cpp -o hello
-o option converts the compiled code into executable code and stores it in file "hello". To execute this file , type in:
[me@linuxbox usr]$ ./hello
and you see your output on the terminal itself.
