Hey Jeffrey,

did you try to run the command in question on the command line, i.e. what happens when you try 

/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/clang \
  -fno-common -I/usr/local/include -DNDEBUG -L/usr/local/lib helloworld.c

with some simple source file like the attached one?

Since this is on Apple macOS: Did you complete the installation of the command-line tools? Unfortunately there's some version-specific dance you have to complete for Xcode command-line tools to properly work.

Regards, Thomas
