####### To compile without using a makefile
# To compile an object file from a source file you could execute
# g++ -std=c++0x -c filename.cc # produces filename.obj
# To compile an executable file from an object file, you would execute
# g++ -std=c++0x filename.o # produces filename.exe
# To compile an executable file from a source file, you would execute
# g++ -std=c++0x filename.cc # produces filename.exe

# each subdirectory contains a Makefile that lists the executable
# files that can be made in that directory. That list is assigned
# to the make macro named $OBJECTS
# This rule says that the make target named "all" depends on those
# files. Executing "make all" in a subdirectory will cause make
# to build each .exe file listed in that subdirectory's makefile
all: $(OBJECTS)
# rule that says how to make a .o object file from a .cc source file
# for a given source file in a given directory you could compile it
# into an object file by executing "make filename.o"
# $< and $@ are macros defined by make
# $< refers to the file being processed (i.e., compiled or linked)
# $@ refers to the generated file
