Installing C

What is Installing C?
Installing C means installing a compiler such as GCC or Clang, since C itself is just a language specification with no official installer. On Linux, package managers like apt or dnf usually provide GCC directly. On macOS, Xcode Command Line Tools include Clang, and on Windows, options include MinGW, WSL, or MSVC. Once installed, running the compiler on a small test file confirms the setup works.
