Explanation:
The purpose of the make utility is to determine automatically which pieces of a large program need

run with a shell command. In fact, make is not limited to programs. You can use it to describe any
task where some files must be updated automatically from others whenever the others change. To
prepare to use make, you must write a file called the makefile that describes the relationships
among files in your program, and the states the commands for updating each file. In a
program,typically the executable file is updated from object files, which are in turn made by
compiling source files. So, make command compile the source code.
