It depends on the operating system.

On Unix operating systems, or on Windows using MinGW, the easiest way is
to use your C compiler to link:

cc -o output input1.o input2.o [-library]

The stanadard library, libc, is automatically linked in, other libraries
you have to specify.

This will also cause the C library startup code to be included, which is
necessary in order to invoke arbitrary functions.
