Intel C Compiler (also known as icc) describes a group of C/C++ compilers from Intel. Compilers are available for Linux, Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X. Manufacturer suggested retail prices start at US$399.

The Intel C Compiler can automatically generate SSE and SSE2 without the use of hand-coded assembly language, letting programmers focus on algorithmic development instead of assembly-level implementation. Since its introduction, the Intel C Compiler has greatly increased adoption of SSE2 in Windows application development.
