Dear Student,

The labware pages are supposed to be guidelines for you to practice typing, compiling and running C programs.  You should have your own UNIX / Linux system to actually execute any of the commands listed.  ( Linux is freeware ).  You can load Linux into a laptop system ( in addition to the Windows OS it already has ).  If you have VM-Ware installed, it should be easy to install Linux software ( which can be downloaded from the Internet ).

In our lab at Uttara Software Academy, we use RedHAT linux version 5.8.  Ubuntu also should be fine.

Happy computing,

MLS Shastry
