    Angry works in Borland, does not work in Unix T_T

    Code:
    /* Fig. 4.6: fig04_06.c
       Calculating compound interest */
    #include <stdio.h>
    #include <math.h>  
    
    /* function main begins program execution */
    int main()
    {
       double amount;             /* amount on deposit */
       double principal = 1000.0; /* starting principal */
       double rate = .05;         /* annual interest rate */
       int year;                  /* year counter */
    
       /* output table column head */
       printf( "%4s%21s\n", "Year", "Amount on deposit" );
    
       /* calculate amount on deposit for each of ten years */
       for ( year = 1; year <= 10; year++ ) {
    
          /* calculate new amount for specified year */
          amount = principal * pow( 1.0 + rate, year );
    
          /* output one table row */
          printf( "%4d%21.2f\n", year, amount );   
       } /* end for */
    
       return 0; /* indicate program ended successfully */
    
    } /* end function main */
    I tried in Borland , it worked fine . But I mainly use Kwrite to program, same code , but it didn't work in Kwrite

    It presented the following errors :
    /tmp/cc0Q6UEB.o(.text+0x6e): In function "main" :
    : undefine reference to "pow"
    collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

    You need to link the math library

    gcc prog.c -lm
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
