Its been so long Help?

[Weasel]

Hey everyone, its been a while since i was last interested in C++ well
like 3 years now...
and i still cant remember what the command was in the Compiler to
compile the program...

Also when you save the script what do you save the extension as Example

.html , .js

and last question is about A.out, i remember that you needed this to
excute the program, but i cant remember what the script contained to
make the A.out file

Please HELP!

It very much depends on the compiler in question. Using gcc you would
type something like "gcc file" where file is the file containing your
program.

Also when you save the script what do you save the extension as Example

..cpp is quite common, .C, .c++ and a number of other variants also
works. This is both platform-dependent and compiler-dependent, take a
look in the documentation for your compiler.

and last question is about A.out, i remember that you needed this to
excute the program, but i cant remember what the script contained to

When using gcc by default the compiled program will be called a.out, but
you can use the "-o"-flag to change it to something else. Again, refer
to the documentation of your compiler.

For C++ programs you are much better off typing

g++ file
