Install Make

Windows

The easiest way to install make on Windows is by using Chocolatey. Follow these steps:

  1. Install Chocolatey by running the following command in a terminal with administrator privileges:

    Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force; [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol -bor 3072; iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://community.chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))

  2. Once Chocolatey is installed, run the following command to install make:

    choco install make

GNU/Linux

Ensure that make is installed by checking its version:

make --version

If it's not installed, follow the instructions for your distribution:

Ubuntu

sudo apt update
sudo apt install build-essential

Arch Linux

sudo pacman -Syu
sudo pacman -S make

macOS

You can install make through Homebrew, a popular package management system for macOS. If you don't have Homebrew installed yet, you can do so with the following command:

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

After installing Homebrew, use the following command to install make:

brew install make

Install GCC

Windows

To install gcc on Windows, follow these steps:

Download Mingw-w64 and launch the installer.

In the "MinGW Installation Manager," select "mingw32-gcc-g++-bin" and click "Installation > Apply Changes."

Edit your "Environment Variables" by adding the following path to the end of the "Path" variable:

C:\MinGW\bin

(Assuming you didn't manually change any installation paths). Open a Command Prompt terminal and verify the installation with:

gcc --version

GNU/Linux

Ensure that gcc is installed by checking its version:

gcc --version

If it's not installed, follow the instructions for your distribution:

Ubuntu

sudo apt update
sudo apt install build-essential

Arch Linux

sudo pacman -Syu
sudo pacman -S gcc

macOS

Ensure that either clang or gcc is installed by checking their versions

clang --version
g++ --version

If neither is installed, open "Terminal" and run the following command:

xcode-select --install

In the window that appears, click "Install" and agree to the Terms of Service. Once the installation is complete, the command line utilities should be set up properly.

This ensures that clang is installed on your system.

You can then install gcc through Homebrew, a popular package management system for macOS. If you don't have Homebrew installed yet, you can do so with the following command:

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

After installing Homebrew, use the following command to install g++:

brew install gcc

This will install the latest version of gcc, which includes the C++ (g++) compiler.

Verify that both compilers are installed correctly by running:

clang --version
g++ --version

If you use Clang to compile your files, modify your Makefile to use it instead of c++.

Refer to the specific instructions for your operating system to install make and gcc successfully.
