Keyword reference for running

Question 24 (2004):

You said in the answer to Question 20 (2004):

To test `q1', just run it. It should produce the same output as the model answer.

To run a program in occam do we just type:

    kroc q1.occ

?

Answer 24:

Nope, `kroc' is the compiler. When you compile `q1.occ' you're left with an executable called `q1', assuming it compiled successfully. Just run it, i.e.:

    raptor$ ./q1

I'd ask what you've been doing in the terminal sessions for the last 3 weeks -- compiling and running occam programs is one of the first things we did. E.g. compiling and running the various demonstrator and example programs.
