After compiling, there are two thing you need to make sure:
1] Change the file attributes to executable
2] Make sure the dir. is in your path

If your compiled file is not in a dir that's part of your path, the system
won't find it just like that.. you have to fully qualify it's
location.. so instead of just running it by:

%> a.out

you have to do this:

%>./a.out

Hope that helps,
