Test is a shell command.  When you type test, you are getting the shell
program with no arguments passed to it, and thus you get your prompt back.
Try compiling your program with another name other than test and it will
probably work just fine.  I did this too the first time I ever got into a
Unix environment.

Try cc -o foo test.c
then
$ foo
