You can add -I<path> as an argument that tells clang where to search for
header files. -L<path> does the same for libraries. Even when you remove
it another included file may still want it.

clang++ -I/usr/include -L/usr/lib -o myapp myfile.cpp

Does that number have any significance to you? It is the largest number
that can be held by a 32bit signed integer. You can use an unsigned int
to get twice that or you can use a long long to get a 64bit integer.

Also related is that the math library functions have several variations
that take different size arguments.
