Installing GCC for Mac Users


This is a guide for installing GCC on a Mac using Homebrew.

  1. Install Homebrew.

  2. After Homebrew installs, type "brew install gcc" in the terminal.

  3. Once the install completes, attempt to compile a C++ source file using the following command: "g++-12 -Wall Program.cc -o Program". This example uses g++-12. Change the version as appropriate.
