To those who can help me:
I am a beginning C programmer and compiler errors are to be expected, but 
this one is strange. The situation is that I was writing a program to do the 
quadratic formula for you. I originally wrote it in winders and compiled it 
with Borland C/C++ Builder 4.0 with no problems. Then I brought it over to 
my Linux machine and gcc returns this error:

/tmp/ccv8wX5M.o: In function 'main':
/tmp/ccv8wX5M.o(.text+0xc7): undefined reference to 'sqrt'
/tmp/ccv8wX5M.o(.text+0x134): undefined reference to 'sqrt'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

I got one of my CS friends to look at this, he has many years of C behind 
him. He tried compiling this simple program on 2 different flavors of UNIX, 
but it never worked, even simple programs with just one, easy reference to 
any, not just sqrt(), of the math.h calls (ie. sin etc.). Can someone tell 
me how in the world you use math.h on the *INX's? BTW, the varibles being 
sqrt'ed were tried as doubles and floats, but nothing worked. HELP, please. 
Thanks for your time.
Payne
