I get the same output when I call gcc without any file names, so it looks like gcc is working.
Try gcc file.c on a file with some c code. If the code is correct, it should produce an executable file called a.out.
It is indeed installed
Try the command below and see your current version
> gcc --version
Next go find a tutorial on GCC or read the manual
