Hello World! Program in Windows

Install Microsoft Visual C++ Express 2008 (free) http://www.microsoft.com/express/vc/ Write a Hello World! Program Compile and Execute it in Windows In class, we will do this in a simple way using DOS Window Command Prompt
If you are interested in using IDE or Linux, yes you can! Ill give you instructions to start.

Hello World! in DOS Window

This black window is called DOS window command prompt

Start All Programs Microsoft Visual C++ Express 2008 Visual Studio Tools Visual Studio 2008 Command Prompt

Hello World! in DOS Window

In the DOS window (black one), type C:\Program Files> Z: At home, type Z:\> mkdir myprog Z:\> cd myprog Z:\myprog> notepad hello.c

cd C:\

hello Notepad window will appear and ask if you want to create the file. Click yes!

Hello World! in DOS Window

In hello Notepad window, type your program and save it Then, Go back to the DOS window and type Z:\myprog> cl hello.c Z:\myprog> hello Hello World!

Exercise: Develop a program that prints your name on the screen

Start All Programs Microsoft Visual C++ Express 2008 Visual Studio Tools Visual Studio 2008 Command Prompt C:\Program Files> Z: At home, type cd C:\ Z:\> cd myprog Z:\> mkdir ex1 Z:\> cd ex1 Z:\myprog\ex1> notepad myname.c

Type your program in myname - Notepad Compile and execute it!

Z:\myprog\ex1> cl myname.c Z:\myprog\ex1> myname Turgay Korkmaz

Save/Print results from the DOS window (black one):

Inside DOS window, type Right-click mouse inside DOS window Select the Mark option Drag and highlight the results you want to print Hit Enter Move the cursor with the mouse to output.txt, which you have previously opened with Notepad Paste the text you have marked into output.txt Save it or Use Print of Notepad
7

Z:\myprog\ex1> notepad output.txt

See your files in Windows and submit your program

We ask you to submit C source file (hello.c) and output.txt using

WebCT (BB)

Open Windows file manager and type Z:\myprog or C:\myprog into Address field

On C source file, Click Right Button and select Open With Notepad

Test HW

Modify your last program such that, after your name, it prints the names of your three favorite courses! Make sure the first one is CS 2073 Computer Programming with Engineering Applications Save it As test1.c, compile and execute it Copy/paste the output into output1.txt Submit test1.c and output1.txt via 9 WebCT(BB)

/* Another Exercise: Implement this program and execute it. What does it do? */ #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> int main( ) { double tC; /* temperature in Centigrade */ double tF; /* temperature in Fahrenheit */ /* * Prompt for centigrade temperature */ printf("What is the temperature in Centigrade? "); scanf("%lf", &tC); /* * Convert it to Fahrenheit */ tF = 9.0 * tC / 5.0 + 32.0; printf("%.2f in Centigrade is %.2f in Fahrenheit\n, tC, tF); } return 0; /* signal normal end of program */

To compile a C program under Windows, you can also use Microsoft Visual Studio or Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Express IDE (integrated development environment), a software application that provides comprehensive facilities to computer programmers. An IDE consists of at least a source code editor, a compiler and a debugger etc. !! In class we will go with the simple DOS window approach to write and compile our programs !! But if you are interested in using IDE, then here are the directions. If you are not interested in IDE, SKIP this slide!

1. Select Start -> All Programs -> Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition 2. Select File -> New -> Project from IDE menu 3. A dialog box will appear: Select Win32, Win32 Console Application, and name your project (e.g., HW1), click OK 4. Win32 Application Wizard will appear. Click Next, mark/select Empty Project, click Finish 5. Select Project -> Add new item from IDE menu 6. A dialog box will appear: Select C++ File, name your file (e.g., HW1.c), click Add 7. Type/edit your C program in HW1.c window and save it

8. Now you need to compile your program as follows.

9. Select Build -> Built Solution from IDE menu 10. The compiler will show the results in the output window in IDE, 11. If there is any error, go to Step 7 to edit/correct your program and compile it. 12. If there is no error, then you can run the program as follows. 13. Select Debug -> Start without debugging from IDE menu 14. A DOS window (black one) will appear and show the output and/or get input 15. To print the program, Select File -> Print from IDE menu

Hello World! in Linux

Similar to DOS Window. If you plan to use Linux, I can give you more instructions. Just ASK. But, if you are not interested in Linux, SKIP this slide!

Login to a linux machine

SSH Secure Shell (e.g., main212.cs.utsa.edu) main212:> mkdir myprog main212:> cd myprog main212:> pico hello.c

Type your program and save it (ctrl-o) Compile and execute your program
main212:> gcc hello.c o hello main212:> hello
