Thanks to your write up, I compiled my first C and C++ programs.

Those doing it for the first time, please note that if you copy/paste 
the program code from the wiki page directly into the vi editor, it adds 
extra comment characters '//' on different lines and that gives 
compiling errors. So simply remove the '//' characters manually. GCC may 
be already loaded in your system but G++ may be missing,  So install the 
build-essential package as mentioned in the wiki.

That was fun. :)
