    "It's like baking without any recipe!" A recipe would tell you to boil water, but not whether you should boil water using a pan on a gas stove, a pan on an induction stove, an electric kettle, or a cauldron placed on a tripod over a fire. It wouldn't even tell ou where you should get your water. This is like telling make to boil water, and using its internal rules, make will just figure out how ;) Commented Nov 23, 2016 at 21:48

    @Rhymoid It's like yelling out: I want a cake! And then a robot called make checks your fridge and finds out there's some flour available, then bakes a default cake for you from its internal recipe. :-) Commented Nov 24, 2016 at 5:49
  • @Ho1 : The robot might ask, Which cake you want to have sir ? :) :D Commented Jan 4, 2017 at 8:17
