.exe on some platforms
In a canonical C compiler, you type "cc (program file name).c (return) and it spits out "a.out", which is an executable. Works with the original Kernighan and Ritchie C compiler. For C++, use the .cpp extension and "g++" for the compiler: In a terminal window, on MacOS, 'cc (program name).c (return)' 'g++ (program name).cpp (return)' produces an executable named "a.out", which can be run. '-o (some file name . extension) will change the output file name.
C-source program doesn't rum, you have to compile and link it. The executable rums like any other binary program.
Binary object code executable.
The shell interprets the script, while the C-compiler generates a binary executable.
C compiler is a set of program written in order to convert a user code into an executable code which is understood by a Computer.
It is 'EXE' on some platforms.
In WinDos it is .exe, in Unix executables usually have no extensions.
The extension of a file containing a C program can be any extension, so long as the compiler or platform can infer the proper rules to build it. Commonly, for C programs, the extension is .c, so myfile.c would be a C program. The term cpp is not a designation for C++. It means C Program Precompiler, and it is the normal way to build one or more C programs into an executable. Over the years, cpp has evolved into being able to handle all sorts of languages. C++ is one of them. Typical extensions for C++ programs are .cc, .cpp, and .cxx.
The extension of c program is ".c".

In Windows, the location isc:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE{X}\winword.exewhere {X} represents a version number for Microsoft Office. Office 2007 is 12, Office 2003 is 11.
from the extension of your file.If it has an extension of .cpp then it is a c++ programIf it's extension is .c, then it is a C program.
Binary object code executable.
Certainly, you can write a program without main, but you cannot build an executable from it, if that is okay with you.
Write the source program. Compile. Link executable. Run it.
