## The makefile used to create the convert program
## to compile simply type "make"
## to remove all object files and executables type "make clean"


## convert has 2 dependencies main.o and function.o 
convert: main.o function.o 
	## use the gcc compiler to link main.o and function.o object files to an executable called convert
	gcc main.o function.o -o convert

## function.o has 2 dependencies function.c and function.h
function.o: function.c function.h
	## use gcc with the -c option to compile function.c to object code
	gcc -c function.c

## main.o has 1 dependency main.c
main.o: main.c
	## use gcc with the -c option to compile main.c to object code
	gcc -c main.c

## this is just a label so we can automate certain shell tasks (like removing files)
## clean is the standard way of doing this, but we could name it anything we wanted to
clean:
	## use the remove command to remove the object files and the convert executable
	rm -rf convert main.o function.o
