If you're using Linux, GCC (and hence g++) should come with your
distribution, either on your installation CDs or from the
vendor's/maintainer's web site.

Subject: installing g++

Hi,
I was trying to learn how to program C over this winter, and when I
installed Intel C++ compiler, 
it said that it could not find g++ anywhere. So I've tried to install
g++ on my linux, and I just 
couldn't figure out how to do it. I've downloaded the source tarball
from 
http://directory.fsf.org/gcc.html, and extracted it into a directory,
and I've tried ./intall-sh, 
and it wouldn't work. Is there a way for me to install it? I'd really
appreciate it if there were 
simple instructions that I can follow. Thanks.

You do not need both.  If you want intel C++ for a specific reason then
look for support from them.

Your Linux distribution should have a package for gcc (for C) or g++
(for c++) you might want to start there, start your package system and
install it.  It is easier and more reliable than doing it yourself.
