 Building
 ========
 
-This package contains a simple C++ program that can be compiled using
-the `GNU Compiler Collection`_.  As you write more complicated code
-(to solve more complicated problems), you'll be linking to external
-libraries and doing other things that make building your software more
-complicated.  We record the commands you need to build the software in
-the ``Makefile``, which is interpreted by `GNU Make`_ to build the
-software.
