A journey of a thousand miles, starts with a single step.

From my MINGW home folder.

$ cat bobble.c


#include <stdio.h>

/* gcc -o bobble.exe bobble.c         # default optimization */

int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
  printf("ARGC is %d\n", argc);

  for(int i = 0; i < argc; i++) {
     printf("ARGV[%d] is %s\n", i, argv[i]);
  }

  char line[BUFSIZ];

  fputs("\nTo quit the program, press the return key now", stdout);
  fflush(stdout);
  fgets(line, sizeof line, stdin);

  return 0;
}

$  gcc -o bobble.exe bobble.c

There, I've compiled a Windows program. The program
happens to be pointless, but it's a program. I've achieved
something. Now, I just have to learn to program :-)

If you're in Visual Studio instead, you can ask for the
Window template, and that gives you a program that opens
a rectangular window frame. And they give you the code
to do that. Then, you pop in your printf statements
or whatever :-)  See, easy peasy.

In MINGW, a package that has a Makefile, I can run
"make" and it does all the compiler calls for you, and
you don't have to be all that clever to do one of those.

And if you need little code snippets to experiment with,
there is rosettacode for examples. There might be some C code
here, to print the digits of Pi .

https://rosettacode.org/wiki/Pi

You can also have the AI write you some code. With
no guarantees the code works, and then your
skills as a debugging person are more important
than your skills as a programmer. One program I asked
the AI to write, it was pretty well entirely rewritten
by the time I was finished with it. Nothing wrong with that,
as the AI version is the "salt" to get you started. It has
enough programming constructs in it, to teach you a little bit.
