  - Rename the file name from mingw32-make.exe to make.exe.

After generating project and implementing the code we simply do following two steps : -

  make

To run the Program, first change the directory and go to output folder where your 'main.exe' file exits.For changing the directory,type cd output and for running the Program,type

  ./main

where ./ represents present working directory and 'main' is the executable target file.
