### Adding Flags
You can also add flags to the compiler to your custom and favor. For example:
`g++ -O2 helloWorld.cpp -o helloWorld`
Some common flags are :
1. -O2 : Optimize your code, so it may run faster.
2. -std=c++11 : use c++11 instead of c++98 which is defaulted.
2. -std=c++11 : use c++11 instead of gnu++14 (the GNU implementation of the C++14 standard) which is defaulted.<sup>1</sup>
3. -Wall: prompt some warning about some common mistakes which can bug your program.
4. -Wextra: prompt some extra warning.
____________
There are a number of different types of compilers. The two listed are the two that are usually packaged with the Windows
or Linux/OSX.
