You have to install gcc for using C/C++ Compiler.

The best thing to do would be to install the entire build-essential package by giving the following from the Terminal:
sudo apt-get install build-essential

Let that process complete and then you should again be able to use:
gcc filename.c -o outfilename
Or,
g++ filename.cpp -o outfilename

To compile your .c and .cpp files.

Can you help with this problem?
