Alex,

  Add "-lm" to your gcc link line... that asks gcc to link in the math 
library.  "-l" says link in the following library "m" is the name of the
math library.

  So "gcc -o run_me infile.c -lm" should produce a run_me...

  If not please paste the error messages you see.

    Good Luck,
      Mike
