If you have installed GLPK (see the file 'INSTALL' for details), you
can enter the following command:

gcc sample.c -lglpk -lm

which by default produces the executable 'a.out' (it can be run by the
command './a.out').

Alternatively, you can just compile the package (i.e. use 'make' or
'make check' instead 'make install'). In this case you need explicitly
specify the subdirectory which contains GLPK headers, and the GLPK
object library, for example:

gcc sample.c -I glpk-x.y/include glpk-x.y/libglpk.a -lm

Be sure that you have got GLPK 2.3 which is the latest version of the
package.
