{{Admon/tip|XerxesHost System|Perform You can choose to perform this lab on any of the [[SPO600 Servers#x86_64|Xerxes]] -- an account has been created for each [[SPO600]] student who submitted an SSH public key. Alternately, you may use your own system if it has been set up with development tools and libraries, '''plus''' the static version of the glibc library.}}{{Admon/important|Winter 2020|In Winter 2020, this lab is not a required lab and will instead be used as an in-class Demo.}}

1. Write a basic C program which prints a message on the screen, [http://www.roesler-ac.de/wolfram/hello.htm Hello World!]-style -- something like this:
