Welcome!


As part of an ongoing effort to keep you, the Fortune reader, abreast of
the valuable information that daily crosses the USENET, Fortune presents:

News articles that answer *your* questions, #1:

    Newsgroups: comp.sources.d
    Subject: how do I run C code received from sources
    Keywords: C sources
    Distribution: na

    I do not know how to run the C programs that are posted in the
    sources newsgroup. I save the files, edit them to remove the
    headers, and change the mode so that they are executable, but I
    cannot get them to run. (I have never written a C program before.)

    Must they be compiled? With what compiler? How do I do this? If
    I compile them, is an object code file generated or must I generate
    it explicitly with the > character? Is there something else that
    must be done?

  • An all-knowing, all-seeing oracular deity that will deign to tell you what the future holds.
  • A total fraud based on a cryptographically insecure random number generator
  • A fun side project to experiment with different messaging APIs.
  • An API for getting fortunes on your website or in your app!
  • Free! With full source code available!
  • Hopefully safe for work, but not edited by me.
There are lots of sources you can try:
