Answer from AI

To build programs from source code using bash scripts, a sequence of compilation and linking commands is usually executed. For example, for a C program, you can write a script that compiles the source files and assembles the executable:

#!/bin/bash

# Compile source files
gcc -c main.c utils.c

# Link object files into an executable
ngcc main.o utils.o -o my_program

# Run the program
./my_program

Such a script can be extended by adding error checks, cleaning temporary files, compilation parameters, etc. This allows automating the build process without using complex build systems.
