Hi Alove,

What specificly? Are you using windows, mac ,or linux? I had a tough time first learning it but there are 2 or 3 main commands you should know.

if you type "cd" like

cd documents

Then you will navigate to the specified folder you want. Once you are in the folder that contains your makefile and c code just type

 make

Here is a simple tutorial on command prompt navigation. Hope this helps. Reply back if you experience any other problems :)
