How To Run

Note: This can only compile on linux.

1. If you use VS Code then go to tasks.json and add -lreadline in args and then compile the program. This is for the readline library. You can also compile with this command g++ main.cpp -o main utilities.cpp -lreadline.
2. Run the program from VS Code or type ./main in terminal.
