You have downloaded a source package for gcc-4.02. To make it usable, you need to compile it... and you will need a compiler for that.

Check the installation disks for your Linux distribution: there should be a packaged gcc. Just install it first. It may request that you install several other packages as dependencies, do that.

After that, you should have a working C compiler. If you specifically need gcc-4.0.2 and your distribution has an older version of gcc, now you can use the old compiler to make the new one.

Download gcc rpm if you are using redhat:
