What is the default C -std standard version for the current GCC (especially on Ubuntu)?

Question

When I ask to see the current version of cc I get this.

$ cc --version
cc (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.7.2-2ubuntu1) 4.7.2
Copyright (C) 2012 Free Software Foundation, I         


        

Answer 1

Default gcc command is the GNU dialect of ISO C90 (including some C99 features). This is the default for C code.
