Programming question? Help!?

That is just plain old "C". Not C++.

Gcc or any other C compiler will do it for you.

Added: Windows7:

If you do not already have Cygwin installed (you should), then download the setup from Cygwin.org

Install Cygwin and choose "gcc" under the "Devel" section of the installer.

Then run the Terminal (bash shell).

At the shell prompt, enter the command:

gcc YourFileWithTheCodeInIt.c

That will create the executable "a.out".

Run that with command:

./a.out

It's a C program that uses pthread.h, so I'd say your need a C compiler running on Linux.

The GNU C compiler is one of the best compilers out there (if not THE best), and it comes pre-installed on Linux, so the short answer is: you'll need a Linux computer.

## EDIT ## I wonder why Jim claims it's C++, when it's clearly C.

gcc (g++) on linux.

you might have to install the compiler.

it's c++.

if the compiler supports std::thread, you might be better off using that instead of pthreads.

that would be a recoding effort.
