what to do to be able to compile c programs without internet connection

[seleciii44]

hi, I am new in ubuntu and i have to write a c program related with threads. But i couldn't compile the code. I don't know what to do and i don't have much time left. My wireless connection doesn't work in ubuntu because it has no driver. Please help me to fix it.:confused::confused:

Put the installation CD in the drive, and in a terminal type:
sudo apt-get install build-essential

Unless you've modified the "/etc/apt/sources.list" file, it should fetch the necessary files from the CD.
