Compile-Link Sequence

In the previous example, the compiler will automatically generate the loader object files, growth.o and fft.o, and then invoke the system linker to create the executable program on the file growth.

After compilation, the object files, growth.o and fft.o, will remain. This convention permits easy relinking and recompilation of files.

If the compilation fails, you will receive a message for each error. No .o files are generated for those source files with errors, and no executable program is written
