Bahamut,

The gcc compiler names it's output file by default a.out . To run it, you can
just type

./a.out

To force gcc to give the output file another name, you can use the -o flag
as nebulus suggested. And yes, you will find that for many programs on
your Linux system there are man pages. Although they are not always
easy to read, they contain a wealth of information.
