Undefined reference to `pow' and `floor'

You need to compile with the link flag -lm, like this:

gcc fib.c -lm -o fibo

This will tell gcc to link your code against the math lib. Just be sure to put the flag after the objects you want to link.


In regards to the answer provided by Fuzzy:

I actually had to do something slightly different.

Project -> Properties -> C/C++ Build -> Settings -> GCC C Linker -> Libraries

Click the little green add icon, type m and hit ok. Everything in this window automatically has -l applied to it since it is a library.


Add -lm to your link options, since pow() and floor() are part of the math library:

gcc fib.c -o fibo -lm

For the benefit of anyone reading this later, you need to link against it as Fred said:

gcc fib.c -lm -o fibo

One good way to find out what library you need to link is by checking the man page if one exists. For example, man pow and man floor will both tell you:

Link with -lm.
