How do I convert a C program to an .exe file?

[Danxue Huang]

Hey Amaan,

Thank you so much for your detailed answer! I have figured it out following
the instructions. Since I read various versions of staring instructions,
files are kind of messed up in my machine, I just redo everything from the
beginning and then it works. I really appreciate your help!

Best,
Dannie
