Compile the program with   g   -Wall -Wextra -Werror -c main cpp -o main o                            lt - For listing all warnings when your code is compiled    as cout is present in the C   standard library  which would need explicit linking with -lstdc   when using gcc  g   links the standard library by default   With gcc   g   should be preferred over gcc   gcc main cpp -lstdc   -o main o
