An engineer is learning to write exploits in C++ and is using the exploit tool Backtrack. The engineer wants to compile the newest C++ exploit and name it calc.exe. Which command would the engineer us

The g++ command compiles C++ source files with the .cpp extension. The syntax 'g++ hackersExploit.cpp -o calc.exe' correctly identifies the C++ source file and uses the standard -o flag to designate the output executable name, which is the correct invocation for compiling and naming a binary with g++.

The .py extension identifies a Python script, not a C++ file, so g++ cannot compile it.

The -i flag is not a valid g++ compilation flag, and .pl identifies a Perl script which g++ is not designed to compile.

The --compile switch does not exist in g++; standard compilation simply requires the source file and the -o flag to name the output.
