GCC compiler online version for my website

I have a website teaching C for beginners.

I'm trying to have a C compiler online version so that a user could easily compile their code online itself.

Are there any compilers available? If available, which is the best one?

I have found some compilers, but they have got no capability of taking input from the user, but they have the capability of just displaying the output.

There is no package that can just be added to a blog so people can try C online and see the results.

You could provide a link to gcc or another compiler so your readers can try it themselves.

If you were really serious, a CGI script could be created on the server side which:

  1. Runs in a sandbox (this is critical to get right and is potentially dangerous if done incorrectly)
  2. Compiles the source code
  3. Runs the compiled code
  4. Returns the results

Sorry that I can't give you an easy answer, but there it is.
