math.h

[Dennis J. Sylvester]

I tried using the sqrt() function with gcc and get an error : undefined
reference to 'sqrt'.  If I compile with g++ I have no problem.  I get
the same result when trying to use pow() also.  What am I missing?

Any help would be appreciated.

Add the option -lm to your command line when you compile.

...and read the FAQs...and the docs...it's all in there...in fact if you
LOOK, this has probably been covered at least twice this week on this

Did you link the math library?  I mean, did you type "-lm", like in

gcc -ansi -pedantic -Wall -o foo foo.c -lm

?`

I recently took up learning C and had a problem 
when trying to compile a program that called the pow() function and the sqrt() 
function. I thought those functions should have been in the math.h header file. 
My programs worked with the Microsoft compiler, but I would prefer 
to write programs for Linux. I have 3 computers with 3 different versions 
of Linux installed, but none of them have the math functions that I need (or 
that I know of at least). I have the versions of gcc that were included with 
Redhat 6.0, Redhat 6.1, and Mandrake 6.0. I was wondering if there is a new 
math.h file that I can download somewhere. If you know, please send me a link to 
it.
 
Thanks much,

Hello,

Please, in which include file may I find the mathematical functions such 
sin, cos, pow, sqrt, etc.

Thanks a lot for your help.
Best regards.

Maybe I don't understand the question but you need only to add 

#include <math.h>

and link with the -lm
