If you get a 'permission denied', ensure that the execute bit is set
('chmod +x <file>').
But gcc sets the file permissions for you.
If you get a segmentation fault, that suggests that the code being
compiled is faulty.
Blame the compiler???? That's a CompSci 101 mistake.

Then why didn't he just say that? "Segfault means you wrote buggy
code."

When I just started with IBM I used to think that the PSW quit PSW-ing
when I made mistakes.

I thought that's what he said, just in different words:
"the code being compiled is faulty" = "you wrote buggy code".

Passive voice vs. active voice.
"[T]he code being compiled is faulty" implies that the "the code"
did something to make itself broken, whereas "you wrote buggy code"
places the blame squarely on target: the human.
(This could be construed as an example of the femininization of man,
but I won't go there...)

It would be interesting to know how many people on this list know
(without resorting to Google) what PSW means...
