C compiler

[ifxtechie]

Hi,
I need some help. It is regarding the C-compiler. Whenever I type cc on my linux system it says cc-bad command. How can I identify that my system has C-compiler[if not where can I download]. I was assuming that it will come with the OS. I am using THIZ-Linux.
Thanks

the linux based c compiler is usually gcc

Oh, I forgot. Thanks for that. But even that [gcc] is not working. Same error. Can you pls throw some light as should I explicitly install or wil it come with OS.
thanks

[tt]gcc[/tt] isn't really a part of the OS. If your distro doesn't come with it, you'd have to download it from your favorite GNU mirror. //Daniel
