    Close voters, please understand that what would be a typo for an experienced programmer is an example of a lack of understanding in a beginner and hence an on-topic question. – Yunnosch Apr 26 '20 at 08:31

gcc is the compiler. You compile your program using gcc .\pratice.c. You can remove the .\ since gcc will look in the current directory for source files anyway.

You execute your compiled program using .\a.exe.
