would like help on how mingw is used not sure if I am doing it right.
We'd be glad to help you with any programs you're having with the C
language. We generally don't deal with the details of specific
implementations (such as how to run a compiler).
If you're having problems writing correct C code, you're in the right
place. Show us the code you've written (the *exact* code; don't try
to re-type it), and tell us what problems you're having with it. Note
that "it doesn't work" or "it did not run properly" is not a
description of your problem; something like "I got this error message
on line 5" (and show us the *exact* error message), or "it produced
this output; I expected that output" (and show us both the actual and
expected output) would be far more helpful.
If you're having problems with your implementation (the program is
correct but you don't know how to invoke the compiler), this isn't the
right place to ask. Presmably mingw comes with documentation; read
it. There's also a mingw FAQ list and several mailing lists; the
latter should be full of people who, unlike most of us, actually know
how to use mingw. See <http://www.mingw.org/>.
And since you're posting through Google, please read
<http://cfaj.freeshell.org/google/> if you haven't already.

We must do something. This is something. Therefore, we must do this.
