I've compiled tons of c programs in Puppy using Geany and the gcc compiler without any problems.

But for the first time I have used one of the math functions defined in the <math.h> header and get an error which I just can't solve.

Since I am learning c for both Windows and Linux I know the program works in the gcc compiler in Codeblocks for Windows.

Code:


#include <math.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
      double x,y;

      x = 5;

      y = sqrt(x);

      return 0;
}



the error message is

Code:


/tmp/ccr0Yo3k.o: In function `main':
/root/test.c:11:undefined reference to `sqrt'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: ***[all] Error 1



btw I can use ANY of the math functions and get the same error.

Hey Gemera

Although I don't know C at all (high time to learn it at last...), but I think this will shed some light on the problem:

I've compiled your example with -lm and it seems to be ok...

Greetings!
