just navigate to the folder where the file is and type a.out, it will run itself

Also, if you want to save it, you will have to rename it, otherwise it will be overwritten the next time you compile something.

is the command you used above exactly what you used. could you have put a filename after that to output it to? i haven't done compiling in awhile, so i don't remember all the commands, but i know that you could just have it go to a file rather than a.out
