When you type "a.out", Linux checks the various "path" directories (e.g.
"/usr/bin") for a file named "a.out". If it can't find it, then it
tells you that, well, it can't find it - that the command doesn't exist :o).
You can get around this by typing the exact path of the program. Say
a.out is located in "/home/sridhar/". You can type "~/a.out" (from
anywhere), or change to your home directory and type "./a.out".
