Thread: compiling Hello World in C

i c , c++ going on ubuntu 11. i've been trying few hours hello world going in c. have programming experience in java , php not c or c++.

code:

#include < stdio.h>  void main() {     printf("\nhello world\n"); }

i error:
stdio.h: no such file or directory
compilation terminated.

after googling tried sudo apt-get install build-essentials no change. need put source file in specific directory?

p.s.
when running locate stdio.h get:
/usr/include/stdio.h
/usr/include/bits/stdio.h
/usr/lib/perl/5.10.1/core/nostdio.h
/usr/lib/syslinux/com32/include/stdio.h
