The example programs in this chapter can be compiled with any modern C compiler. We recommend MinGW on Windows and GCC on Linux and macOS. See Appendix B, Setting Up Your C Compiler On Windows, Appendix C, Setting Up Your C Compiler On Linux, and Appendix D, Setting Up Your C Compiler On macOS, for compiler setup.
