I'm trying to compile and run the following program:

[File: hello/hello.c]
#include <stdio.h>


int main ()
{
printf("Hello World\n");
return (0);
}


This is what I'm getting in Terminal:

[localhost:~/learning_c] aaron% cc -g -ohello hello.c
hello.c:1: error: parse error before '[' token
[localhost:~/learning_c] aaron%


Any tips?

I'm running OSX 10.4.7 by the way.

Is this text part of your file?

If it is, remove it from the file. The first line should be
That should work.

thanks. I wish the book I was using had specified that.
