Is there a package of standard .h files?

I switched to LinuxMint recently and I realized it has GCC already installed. So I decided to brake it in and realize it has no stdio.h. I add that and now it needs another for stdio.h to work. Is there a package I can get to download a bunch of basic header files?

The code below is what happened after I downloaded stdi.h into the correct file.

 /usr/local/include/stdio.h:19:20: fatal error: _mingw.h: No such file or directory
 #include <_mingw.h>
                    ^
compilation terminated.
sudo apt-get install build-essential
I still end up with this error:

In file included from ssh.c:1:0:
/usr/local/include/stdio.h:19:20: fatal error: _mingw.h: No such file or directory
#include <_mingw.h>
^
compilation terminated.

Would you by any chance know why? Is _mingw.h not standard?
No it's not standard. The name suggests it's only available on the MinGW compiler (a Windows port of GCC).

Make sure it uses the correct stdio.h file (not the one you downloaded manually).
