Problem occurred while compiling a cpp program in gcc

My code is 

#include<iostream>   

using namespace std;  
int main()  
{  
   cout <<"hi";  
   return 0;  
}

I compile it with:

gcc d.cpp -o d

Error as follows 

Undefined                       first referenced
 symbol                             in file

ld: fatal: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to d

What is the mistake in the above code?

g++ d.cpp -o d

Should use g++ for a c++ program compilation to link to C++ standard library.

that code should compile fine with a c++ compiler, however you are compiling it using gcc (a c compiler) need to use g++

You should compile your C++ programs with g++, not gcc. There is no mistake in the code, but if you use gcc with those parameters then your program will not be linked against the C++ standard library.
