We show in this section a simple example of a SIMULA program and how to compile and run it.
Create a SIMULA program with a text editor, and give it a name with extension ``sim''. In this example we name it doesit.sim:
begin Outtext("Simula does it in C"); Outimage; end
You can now compile the program with the cim command:
%cim doesit Compiling: doesit.sim cc -w -c doesit.c cc -o doesit doesit.o -lcim -lm %
The compiler will produce C code that is further processed towards machine code with a standard C compiler. All produced files have the same name as the input file, but with different extensions. The compiled and linked program can be invoked by entering:
%doesit Simula does it in C %
