Chelsea, Basically, you have access to any libc library function, and any library function you care to import personally. So, for the most part. You can get a good book on Linux programming, and just follow along.
One thing I'm personally unclear on, is that if these libc headers are already installed as base, or through the *build-essential* package. I could probably find out, but never bothered because in order to write C / C++ code you should install that package anyway. As it installs the GNU Compiler Collection, and everything else needed to get started with C/C++ development. Python, I could not say exactly, but I'm fairly certain it's roughly the same. Just *apt-get install <package>* On Mon, Dec 7, 2015 at 8:01 AM, Chelsea Orefice <coref...@smith.edu> wrote: > Hi John, > > These are very helpful links.
