gcc as a command in terminal?

Question

i'm using a mac to learn c programming. i was taught to compile a code by typing something like this into the command line:

gcc -std=c99 -Wall -pedantic -Werror -o rot rot.c

but for some reason now it keeps saying that the command gcc is not recognised. i know its a bit vague but can anyone point me in the right direction a least?

thanks

Did this happen after you updated your OS?

Xcode->Preferences

In the downloads tab, install "Command Line Tools".



Might have to restart after it is finished. You should be able to run gcc in command line now.
