Unix compiler/code tags help with mac os x

[pixiewolfe]

Hello, I would like to download a compiler that works with max os x MacBook Pro that when doing my Unix homework I can compile and then know it works before I go to the University's website to log in and run the program. Or do I have to use my parrallels desktop on my Mac for a complier to use bash/unix code?

Bash is a script language so it is interpreted, not compiled. Is this a question regarding bash scripting or c/c++ compilation? You may try the programming forums for compiled languages.
